We got 15 of us together for my Dads 70th Birthday and it was joy to have this accommodation for the weekend. Perfectly sized bedrooms with all the cutlery you could ask for both suitable for children and adults. Patricia was such a good host with every question answered. We had forgotten candles for the cake and in a jiffy she sent over a lighter so we could formally wish my dad a happy birthday! Thank you! Highly recommended.
