Just perfect!
Lovely stay. The Annex was comfortable, extremely clean and had everything you could want. Peaceful surroundings and slept so well. The breakfast was the best we have ever had in a B&B - beautifully presented and perfectly cooked. We were lucky to have good weather so enjoyed sitting out on the deck having breakfast in the sunshine.
