Pros:

Very clean and tidy premises with excellent happy staff. Breakfast very good and even found some honey for our toast. Room a good size with bathroom well finished and largest shower so far on our travels UK. Good place to choose for a stay.

Cons:

A small fridge would be an added bonus but not at many sites. Bathroom towel rail could help as plenty of space to incorporate.
