Beautiful scenery in a peaceful town
Beautiful accommodation, stunning location.
River access had a fallen tree, but added some adventure to our trip!
The skylight windows are just gorgeous, an amazing way to wake in the morning. Love the facilities provided and practical things like pillows, plates, cutlery, picnic basket etc
Bedroom fan needs some attention, but not a hot weekend so all good x
