Charming Stay in the Countryside

warm firespacious roomcomfortable beddelicious meal
I felt very welcome upon arrival, greeted by a warm fire! I stayed in the beautiful and spacious Gatehouse room. The bed was comfortable. The shower was also quite large, which I appreciated. Our evening meal was delicious, thanks to a wonderful waitress!
The rooms felt dated, and I expected a bit more for the price, but the room was comfy enough.
