Breakfast was brilliant. It was lovely to sit at one big table and have conversations with the other guests and the hosts. The place was very clean.

− The side bars on the bed made is a little difficult to get out of bed especially for older or less mobile people. The room was a little small for such a large bed and we had to position a chair so that we didn't walk into the sloping ceiling either side of the dormer window
