peaceful stay

secluded locationadequate quietnesshighland cowsminimal training
the location was secluded and suited a quiet break. the room offered adequate quietness because the walls seemed thick. parking was simple with three distinct areas available. i also noticed highland cows near the upper car park..
i found the lack of staff to be problematic. staff members present was to have minimal training. the time taken to receive food was excessive..
