Suited us fine for a mini-break.
A good place to stay if you are out and about. Bit tired in places but everything functions well and clean.

Short stay
Overall, not bad but with two exceptions. Really needs a tv and the bathroom needs some tlc, especially the shower. Also the shower room was cold even though it had a radiator. A mirror at the sink to enable easier shaving and the room was rather dark. The lounge and bedrooms both good. Outside, some lighting from the gate to the doorway would help a lot as the steps are steep and the entrance was somewhat hidden. Apart from that, comfortable and good value for money.

Short stay
It's a nice little place but I struggled to find it in the dark because the door is hard to see and the three words guide didn't work. Once I got in the place was really cold and took a long time to warm up, the conservatory/sitting area never got warm. No internet was a disappointment. That said it served my purpose, the bed was comfy and I would stay again.
