Gorgeous surroundings, check in instructions were clear but impersonal. Bed was comfy and shower has great water pressure. There was a rising damp smell in our room unfortunately - possibly due to the amount of rain the area has had lately, but could do with a good airing/drying out. Shared kitchen facilities were good and well organised.

Your venue was advertised as a bed and breakfast. But there was no breakfast, and when we called you, you did not respond. The beds were too soft. Overall, just an average experience, but a lot of disappointments.

We were downstairs in the Ulysses Room which was a beautifully finished but dark with absolutely no views. The large large double entrance doors at the foot of the bed were unusual. There appears to be little or no noise insulation from the wooden floors above, allowing noise from movement of guests above.

This is not a B and B facility, no breakfast was provided, although Cont Breakfast could be provided for extra fee!! From the location and setting it appeared the stay would be nice and quiet. However the room was lower level with wooden floors above where other guests were quite noisy walking around all night and very early morning. Downstairs facilities were very good though. Other rooms had to share kitchen and lounge facilities, hence the continued noise. Would not stay again, have booked elsewhere for return trip.
