You don't expect to have to duck when walk around!
Room had a large beam across the ceiling with potential for hitting your head. Doorway to bathroom also very low again with potential to hit your head. Room door was immediately adjacent to outside door so you could hear all the noise anyone coming into that area were making.

Property looked amazing until taking a closer look especially the bathroom, the bath had not been cleaned properly and had hairs in it and there was mould on the ceiling. Could do with a heated mirror or better extraction as the mirror took ages to clear after showering. The staff at the cafe were all helpful and the food was excellent.
