We liked the reception - very welcoming and helpful. The unit was clean and spacious and so comfortable. The outside front area was chipped and mouldy and off putting and so it was a lovely surprise to find the accommodation so good. The coffee, muffin and fruit in the morning was a delightful surprise.
