A good place to stay for local events
Pros:

Friendly and welcoming staff and locals, convenient location and beautiful surroundings. Our beds were very comfy. Tea and coffee facilities and loved having the little fridge with some basics, a really thoughtful touch.

Cons:

Clothes rack held onto curtain pole with a coat hanger, cracks in walls and bathroom window was stuck but wouldn't stop me coming back.

Goed als tussenstop voor een rondreis of uitvalsbasis voor een evenement in Luton.
Pros:

Het buurtcafé wat erbij zit is erg gezellig en levendig. Het ligt in een zeer mooie en rustige omgeving. We zochten een uitvalsbasis om naar Luton te gaan, waar we moesten zijn voor een vriendschappelijke wedstrijd.

Cons:

Het had hier en daar iets schoner op de kamer mogen zijn, maar de extra’s die we kregen maakten het meer dan goed.
