THE breakfast included locally sourced produce. The hosts were kind. They were eager to help. I stayed in the Fat Badger room in the garden. It was a tranquil space.
The accommodation was a little dusty. Bugs were a problem because there is so much vegetation. There were no mosquito screens.

Romantic Hideaway

tranquil gardenromantic atmosphere
I adored the tranquil garden setting. The little fairy lights created such a romantic atmosphere (it was like a dream!). Our full English breakfast was delivered to our veranda each morning, and it was such a treat. The shower was large with plenty of hot water. I found the electric cool box outside to be a lovely extra touch.
I have no complains
