Disappointing
Very disappointing and not what we had hoped for. It was described as a “luxury” B&B and it was seriously lacking. A do it yourself breakfast set up to poach your own eggs and a coffee make that didn’t work.

This was our second stay after being here 6 years ago. It was just as beautiful as before, and if anything it was even better. The house is simply charming and our room was immaculate and very comfortable. The owners greeted us and helped us get settled. It is an easy walk to town, and we both thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would definitely return here if we travel here again.
