After a tiring journey this was a godsend. The host Jayne was there to welcome me up to a cosy room with spacious bathroom. Dinner near the open fire gave it that home from away feeling and the fish and chips were excellent.. I slept well and the hearty English breakfast was an eccellent start to the day. Jayne is a very attentive but discreet host. Thankyou
