exquisite hay loftcomfortable bedexcellent food
The hay loft was exquisite i thought. the bed was comfortable. It was a huge room. on site parking was available and that worked out fine for me. the food quality was excellent both at dinner and at breakfast.
Sadly, i couldn't contact the business easily through their website. There was no facility. the landline wasn't answered. Calls went to voicemail. It was a little inconvenient.

The dining area provided a canopy. I ate a lamb meal at lunch time. The staff remained friendly and tentative. Nothing seemed too much trouble for them.
