What our customers say

M Sadofski - March 2012

Friendly owner


Kath Lindsey - November 2011

Very tastefully done out and far more spacious than expected. Don't think you did it justice on your website. There is a fantastic drying/storage/bike room in a separate building which I think should be mentioned. Very useful for storing and drying bikes, wet ropes and climbing gear, boots, outdoor gear. Great shower, comfy beds.
