fresh breakfast friendly staff super clean rooms intermittent wifi no dinners remote location
The fresh breakfast included varied fruits and yogurts. I found that charming. the staff proved friendly! the rooms were kept spotlessly clean. That enhanced my stay .
The wifi was a bit intermittent. It wasn't the end of the world, though. no evening meals were available. I had to rely on snacks. the location is a bit of a distance from the village. This required some walking on the road, that's not ideal!

Fantastic Stay in a Peaceful Location!!!

spacious room great bathroom helpful staff
My room was spacious with a great bathroom. It included a bath. I enjoyed a soak after walking. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was fresh and had a variety of fruit and yoghurt. I would definitely recommend this place.
I walked the South West Coast Path and had no car. The hotel was a distance from the village. I walked on the road, and I found it a little inconvenient.
