great location with excellent amenities
fresh bread accommodating staff
i found bread, coffee, tea, milk, and juice upon arrival. the cottage catered to my late arrival, i couldn't have asked for more. the staff was pleasant and accommodating.
The toilet seats on both floors were loose. They were not fixed properly to the basin. it was hard to keep either seat in position while using the toilet. i think they require refitting soon.

adequate stay near town
convenient location close parking spot easy access thin mattresses uncomfortable sofa detached curtain pole
the location proved convenient. we could easily walk into town. the parking spot was close to the cottage.
i found the mattresses rather thin (i felt the springs). the sofa was also not comfortable. the curtain pole in the bedroom seemed to be detaching from the wall.
