Perfect!
Pros:

Absolutely lovely. Beautiful property and the friendliest people!

Cons:

Nothing! Loved it! It’s a ways out from the town, so if it’s important to be near the action that’s something to consider, but the peaceful atmosphere was a plus for us.

Pros:

Good enough given inclusive overall price but wierd that they charge an extra £1 for hash browns.

Cons:

Nowhere to store or hang clothes. Weak to no wi-fi signal in main bedroom. Hopeless venetian blinds so rooms (especially kids room) were light at sunrise.

Nice place and would stay again.
Pros:

Good location good parking. Comfy bed. Plenty hot water. Nice bar. And good evening food.

Cons:

Breakfast could be made a little more varied and interesting. Only tea and coffee provided in the rooms - how about sachets of chocolate?
Electric car charging points would be a bonus.

Pros:

Beautiful building, exceptional staff, perfect location for overnight stay during long travel. Very friendly welcome and helpful team. Charming village and people.

Cons:

The bathroom could benefit from extractor fan as it gets very steamy and smelly, and better lighting would improve the rooms a great deal as it felt quite gloomy. Not great problems, but if I were to consider what would have improved our stay, these improvements would make a significant difference.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Warm welcome. Excellent value
Pros:

It was very well presented and good location

Cons:

Although it was June the weather was cold/wet and bedrooms were chilly. Also could have done with either a heated towel rail or hooks in the bathroom to hang towels up to dry
