My wife and I travelled with my wife's parents. My mother-in-law has some disability as a result of a stroke and so we requested accommodation that would be as comfortable as possible for her. The owners could not have been more helpful. We were given a 2-bedroom room with easy access to the shower. The property itself is basic but... more

We arrived late at night in the pouring rain, with a young baby. The owners were so welcoming and went out of their way to help us out. The portacot we had ordered was already up for us, which is a rarity. The room was clean and as exactly as expected for the price. I was keen to see the... more
