Warm, friendly welcome, very helpful. Lovely room, peaceful, rural location, beautiful countryside. Excellent breakfast (happy to cater for vegans, too). Seating in large garden. I cannot rate this place highly enough. Highly recommended. Near lots of sites of historical interest. And very reasonably priced. I had a lovely, relaxing stay.
