My stay at the hotel was truly delightful, thanks to the exceptional hosts, David and Jackie, who made me feel right at home with their warm and attentive service. The hearty breakfast, particularly the full English option, was a highlight, and a great way to start each day. I appreciated how clean everything was and the spacious family rooms that suited larger groups perfectly. However, I did find the evening meal options a bit limited on the nights I was there, which could be improved.
