Lovely rooms, extremely helpful staff - overall a lovely place to stay!
Pros:

Really lovely setting, the room was an exceptionally generous size and very well furnished with everything you could need - even some little activity packs for the kids.

Food in the restaurant was lovely with a great selection to choose from. Well priced and delicious.

The staff were extremely attentive and helpful with all of our requests and questions - we booked B&B but were leaving very early in the morning and they even offered to pack something up for us to take if we wished.

Cons:

Nothing to dislike at all
