chalet style roomsseparate dressing areacomfortable double bed
The rooms are separate chalet-style buildings away from the pub. My room included a separate dressing area in addition to the bedroom and bathroom. The room had toiletries, a kettle, bottled water, tea, coffee, biscuits and tissues. The owners and staff were friendly (I liked their attitude!). The food was really good, and the hosts. The service was excellent. The staff and owners were cute and friendly. My room had a very comfortable double bed and a bath with a shower. It also included a separate dressing room. The room was very clean and quiet.
I noticed a slight lack of body lotion among the provided toiletries.
