The attention to detail amazed me, i found the staff worked hard. the food tasted delicious, and local beer delighted me. there was plenty of parking, and the location felt great. Everything worked well.
The shower had very poor pressure. i had to hold it by hand to remove all the soap from my hair and body. It was like quite an inconvenience. the water flow should improve.

we stayed six nights, and it was such a treat. breakfasts were really filling, and the staff was flexible about our needs. the location is great for seeing the countryside, i was lucky it was close to a place i wanted to visit. sitting with a beer after a long day killed it.
the shower head was a bit older, so the water pressure wasn't too strong.
