We had a really lovely stay with Kathie. It was raining and very cold but we were welcomed with a glass of port and a warm fire in our room! Can't wait for our next visit.

Wonderful stay

Stayed 2 nights as tourists in November 2009. Parking was awkward - trimming trees would help. Staff very helpful.

Excellent value for money.
