Pros:

Great view, very quiet and serene, good shared kitchen and appliances provided.

Cons:

Low ceilings, which made the room feel smaller. The bed was really uncomfortable.

Car park full of dog mess.
Pros:

Kitchen facilities were a bonus.

Cons:

The amount of dog s**t around the car park. Absolutely ridiculous, apparently it’s a dog waking area. But the amount that was there in the morning around my car was ridiculous. The ceilings were also considerably low, low door frames and lights. If you are 6ft 2 plus you need to keep your head down. The shower also needs new sealant, it was covered in stained marks.

Great value accommodation and enjoyed the area!
Pros:

Very spacious accommodation, nice touch that towels provided and en-suite toilet and shower made a huge difference. Kitchen area was great and we were able to cook our evening meal in the air fryer. Very quiet location and a good base for days activities in the local area. We particularly enjoyed the gem rock museum in the village!

Brilliant place to stay
Pros:

When Im down this neck of the woods I always choose here as its exceptionally well priced. I feel comfortable and safe. The rooms are comfortable,clean and staff very welcoming.

Cons:

For the 1st time I experienced a short power cut. It was good the safety lights came on. However it was a bright ceiling light. If this had been on all night it would have been difficult to sleep. I would have preferred a bedside light. Other than that everything was prefect.
