    GREAT TIME IN GORE

    • Double Room with Shared Bathroom

    The breakfast was certainly adequate but I left out one breakfast item to draw attention to it for my host's sake

    Friendly hospitable host, great facilities, clean rooms, shower good, I had similar interests to the host with being interested in motorbikes so that made for an even more interesting stay,

    Nothing!

    The place was amazing, the beds were some of the most comfy and the pleasant grounds and gardens around were beautiful. It was clean and Jayne and Bruce were beyond hospitable. They were able to extend our stay without a problem, and they were kind and friendly. The facilities included a place for food and coffee, a little fridge and animals on the property including a friendly deer named Hazel, as well as a cockatoo and more. I would recommend this for anyone and we could not have asked for a more beautiful spot. We had a wedding, and the morning of they were hospitable and allowed us to bring the photographer over to take some shots of the groom and groomsmen. They were always smiling and clearly put a lot of love into the place. Thanks!!!

    There was nothing I didn't like,

    Our room was very comfortable, the common lounge and kitchen is also very comfortable and well equiped. The breakfast is a bonus. The views are really lovely and a great bar-b-q area. We were only there for one night but could easily stay much longer. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful.

    As I arrived so late, I didn't get to meet you on arrival so I wasn't sure to do about breakfast. I helped myself to coffee and cereal and yoghurt etc but wouldn't have minded a couple of pieces of toast. Not to worry, what I had was good, and I'm sure if I'd have had more time, I'd have been well looked after.

    Very warm and comfortable room - and extremely comfortable bed. It was a shame I was only in residence for such a short time, although that was my doing of course. Thank you. P.S. The snow was an added bonus!!

    It had said cooked breakfast was part of the B and B but was not offered. Could hear homeowners next door reasonably clearly so felt like we needed to stay in our room. Wasn't a problem as our room had a t.v and was comfy.

    A good selection of continental cereals and spreads for toast. Tidy well presented rooms and surroundings.
