a amazing stay!!!

fine view comfortable bed
the hosts were friendly and helpful with everything. the room had a fine view and was lovely and peaceful. the bed was comfortable, and the quilt was gorgeous and fluffy. tea and coffee facilities with fresh milk were available in the room, not the tiny little cartons, which i very much appreciated.
it was a bit cold in the bathroom, but the room was heated. it's a pity the water took so long to come through hot. i am sure this will be fixed soon.
