    No reception but tbh that wasn’t a big issue and the check-in procedure was ok.

    Quiet location, nicely decorated interior and rooms.

    A little remote if you want to walk to a pub or restaurant for the evening but we also enjoyed this element too - so quiet and peaceful

    Beautifully restored building and rooms with lots of character and charm. The owners were really friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was excellent too.

    Generally comfortable location to stay, needs a bit of refreshing and attention from owners.

    Tried several times the day before arrival to contact owners with a question, through Booking.com message, phone call, left voicemail but no response to any of these. Staff were a bit elusive in general, a young girl serving breakfast was the main person visible (self-service check-in so you don't see anyone on arrival). Bedroom was a bit dusty - bedside table was covered in dust when I placed items on it. There was a folder with leaflets for local attractions but they were all 2 or 3 years out of date - maybe they need to get some newer ones? Feels like the owners just need to give the place a bit of a refresh and a bit more attention to detail.

    Comfortable bed. Good location, nice views of hills. Had the deli platter for supper 2 nights and it was nice, breakfast was quite nice. Bathroom was clean. Batteries were flat in both TV remotes but staff did replace them quickly when asked. Lots of parking.

    Location and rooms with balconies to watch the sunset. The music room with an 'honesty bar' was a nice touch. Breakfast was excellent. You are pretty much left to yourself as it is self check in but everyone I did meet were very pleasant and helpful.

    The mattress was too soft and springy for my personal taste and needs but otherwise loved it all. A joy to discover.

    Beautiful house, extremely well converted to B&B, with welcoming staff, delicious generous breakfast, great shower, nice toiletries, a lovely balcony and decent sized room with gorgeous view. Location is superb. Chilled 20 minute walk into town through achingly pretty countryside and another walk we didn’t do but looked gorgeous by the river.

    Bacon done as much as it was- i like wll done bacon- but this was on another level!

    I requested breakfast to be at 8- and was there at 8 for it- but it wasn't served until 8.35 which made me later than i wanted to be- I actually would have readily had breakfast at 7 as i was up at 5.30...., bacon was the most well done i've ever had- but in general it was great.

    Our room was not made up after the first night. Tea and milk in the room were not replenished, nor were the guests' stocks in the corridor. No-one greeted us on arrival or saw us on departure, making our visit feel rather anonymous.

    The room was stylishly decorated on an operatic theme, and the bed comfortable. The breakfast was good. We liked the quiet dark location and mountain views.

    Staff is not present for check-in, only at breakfast. It's understandable, as the property has few rooms. The price seems a bit high in this respect.

    The property was just outside a nice town with stores and pubs. The house is nice and quiet. Rooms have a rooftop terrace with a great view over the valley. The bathroom was nice and modern.
