Lovely location and staff - quaint and pretty!
Pros:

Lovely location - so quaint! The staff (lady in particular) was amazing - SO helpful and accommodating as I was travelling on my own with my little one.

Cons:

Breakfast hours - would’ve been handy to have it from 6am (or the option for this by paying an extra fee).
