Large bedroom with ensuite, including decent shower. The addition of a fan during the heatwave was a welcome touch, as was the fridge in the bedroom with milk, juice and jug of water. Breakfast was nice and the pretty garden offered seating and some shade, a nice place to sit out in evening.

There is traffic noise from main road, but we had windows open due heatwave.

The location and breakfasts was great

The room was not en-suite you have to go across the hall for the toilet and the website said there's a shared bath but there was not

Horrible experience would never recommend someone to stay there

1.0

The town nearly was a nice experience .specifically to walk around in the evening. We have been to beaches were very nice less crowded.

This was one of the horrible experience for me and my partner for the room where we stayed for 2 nights the owner was very weird guy he asks questions even someone likes to talk or not I would never recommend someone to stay. The room blankets were very smelly we had to put them on side tables straight away we reach there we slept for 2 nights without blankets and one window was broken with a note that we can’t open it how someone suppose to stay in 35 degrees without opening the windows and he blamed after if i opened it and made safety concerns excuses. The food was also awful . They refuse to give us breakfast second morning . Then we asked for fruit salad only. Even though there was a big hair in my partners plate they took no care while doing it (the fruit was not even fresh) only a small fan was placed on top of fridge which could barely blow air to the bed . I request booking.com to please take extra care while selecting such houses . Thank you
