pleasant stay

perfect locationguest sitting roomspot on parkingsoft bedshower matdog presence
the guest house was in a perfect location it was very quiet. it had a lovely guest sitting room and a well positioned veranda. i enjoyed wonderful views in all directions. parking at the hotel was spot on.
the bed was far too soft for me. i think the shower would benefit from a shower mat. i think it should have been made clear they had a dog.
