A great place to stay. As a couple we had all the rooms for our use, kitchen area, couldn't have asked for anything, everything was provided, including milk, which wasn't long life. Could not find a single thing to complain about. Queen bed wow we had an amazing sleep. Even our 2 dogs slept well. Breakfast was provided. Everything any guests needed was provided. Shower was fantastic. Christine thank you for providing, a great place for weary travellers to stay. We wish you all the best, your a great host, one of the best places we have ever stayed in, and we have stayed in many, but your place is faultless. Thank you Rod and Jenny
