adequate stay overall

delicious breakfast helpful advice low eaves extra charge
The breakfast was delicious. It included quality bacon, sausage, and black pudding. Paul provided excellent advice on local dining and attractions. Nothing seemed too much trouble for him.
I discovered upon arrival that our assigned attic room had very low eaves. Reaching the bathroom required ducking. Helen proposed a room swap for an extra £80, which i found steep.

amazing time

great hosts local attractions good info
helen and paul were both great hosts. paul gave us much info about local attractions. he told us what was going on and good places to go. i didn't realize it was goth weekend, it was an eye opener.
the lights in my room were a little dodgy. i told paul, the owner, about it. i think they could cook the mushrooms longer. also, maybe two sausages are better than one because they are thin.
