I wish i spent longer at this beautiful estate. The host was very friendly and made sure my stay was comfortable. I found myself feeling very peaceful and relaxed during my time there and would love to go back again soon! All facilities were clean and organized with a homey feel to the space. Everything you may need is provided for you and if you forgot anything, just ask, they are very accommodating! Jack and Flynn made my stay even better with their welcoming tail wags and meows and extra cuddly cuddles. 11/10, felt right at home and wished i could have stayed longer. I recommend you go if you have the chance to!

Beautiful situation. Everything was easy. Sharing the bathroom was not easy as one of our stay has dementia so sharing is not so easy but in fact even tho there were 4 sets of guests it did not actually pose a problem. Breakfast easy & totally adequate. Good stay. Lovely dog n cat

Cosy B&B. Can recommend. Breakfast is basically cereals and toast, but really that's all anyone needs unless your going on a big hike.

We enjoyed our stay. We were greeted by the owner the day we got there and in the next morning for breakfast. He also gave us an excellent suggestion for the evening meal. We would recommend this place.

No staff available at check in. The sign at the door says to text the owner when you arrive which i did. No response. I went to my assigned room to find that there was a bolt lock on the outside of the door. I cannot understand why that door could be locked from the outside. The property is beautiful but that made me very uncomfortable as a solo traveller. I decided to book elsewhere for the rest of my stay.

We knew we would be sharing a bathroom, but did not realize it would be ONE bathing area and two sinks shared with three other rooms. It was a bit uncomfortalbe a few times. The room was cute with lovely views over the farmland around, so we were happy with that, and the Continental breakfast. It was a little tricky to find, even though it is right along the main road (and a little noisy because of that), but the countryside is beautiful.

B and B to avoid
I let myself get sucked in by the inexplicably positive reviews without reading them very carefully, which is the only way you will know before booking this place that you are likely to share one sink, one shower, and two toilets with potentially 8 people. And this is not the only discomfort. My room was taken up almost entirely by the bed. There was no foldable suitcase platform or any place to put it out of the way. It is typical in a B and B that access to common areas will compensate for limited space in your own room. Not here. There is a spacious living room/kitchen area that is off limits (also not indicated in the advertising). There is nice out door space and a good view, but this was by far the worst B and B where I've stayed. It's a glorified short-term rooming house where you get cereal and toast in the morning (but not even a pot of fresh coffee!).
