Internally a beautiful residence however internal sound proofing would be beneficial
Pros:

There was no breakfast, comfortable room adequate facilities however our window and outdoor space was right in the entrance and part of the work yard ergo only viewed boats for repair and logs. It would seen pertinent that if dogs are allowed they should be permitted within a bar area, this is especially pertinent if your ability to walk is curtailed

Cons:

situation of room, outlook poor
