Breakfast in the shed/garage converted to a dining space was unique but it was clean, well appointed and well equipped for a continental breakfast. Some written instructions on how to operate the heater in the room would have been helpful. My queen size bed was equipped with an electric blanket which kept me warm. The upgrade from double to queen was greatly appreciated.

The fridge was unclean, the shower leaked over the floor making it unsafe, the tennis court at the back had a very loud PA system that boomed right through the place.
