Lovely food, comfortable bed, good shower, nice staff.

− The accommodation is accessed by a wooden narrow outside staircase. Fine if your mobility allows.

Breakfast was great, as was dinner the night before. The staff were lovely.

− We missed not having a wardrobe in our room and a shelf in the shower to hold our toiletries.
