innovative choices attentive staff gorgeous gardens broken phone leaking window dial phone
The breakfast was excellent , with innovative choices available. A very attentive staff member served during breakfast. The gardens were gorgeous and the bedroom was quiet.
The phone in the room was an old rotating dial type , and it was broken. I was unable to use it. The window leaked rain through the night behind the shutters.
