This is a first rate establishment. Off the beaten track, so only the sounds of birds and the cattle. Relaxing! The house is large, and well furnished with period pieces....but the facilities are fully up to date.....loved the large bath, and pity I did not bring my mask and snorkel for an even fuller experience! We had a large comfortable room, large beds and snowy linen. Breakfast at whatever time we requested. We like a good start to the day, and the breakfast certainly did that.....fresh fruit, yoghurts etc. plus a good cooked breakfast with some choices apart from the full English....it is not always easy to get scrambled eggs just right, but ours were, and the salmon was excellent. We also enjoyed the traditional breakfast one day. The host, Jean, also makes her own marmalade, and it was good...we also make our own, so we reckon we know a good one when we taste it. Jean was a first rate host, with lots of helpful local knowledge which was so useful. A first rate experience!
