It just got better. The homeliness, cleanliness, comfort and, of course, the welcome pack made us feel 'right at home' but in holiday mode - we wanted for nothing. It may have been a short 4 night stay, but it met all our 'high' expectations for a well earned and needed break. The only sad part was leaving. Of course, we will be back!!!!! Thank you.
