It was a beautiful place to stay and the owners were wonderful people. They were very nice and gave us a map with great places to go and local things to do! We would defiantly stay here again!

My landlady was adorable. She helped me with the sightseeing and gave me tips on what to visit. She welcomed me warmly with a pot of tea and home made hot scones.

Everything was good plus the owners were very helpful and it was a lovely touch when we arrived to find hot scones and a pot of tea.
Mr Foreman, Brighton, September 2012
We loved the place, perfect for couples. The place is small but there everything you need. The owners are really lovely and always there to help. Would recommend to others and most probably go again next year.
