Excellent value for money. Reccomended.
Pros:

Very tasty breakfast and value for money. Breakfast cooked fresh to order. Good selection for breakfast.
Host very friendly and helpful.
Made to feel welcome.

Cons:

Unfortunately my radiator in my room wouldn't switch off. The host managed to turn it off on request but it was red hot again the morning after.
However this little blip didn't spoil my stay.
