Convenient location with excellent garden surroundings. Spacious room with comfortable bed and nice pillows. Large, well equipped bathroom. The room had an aircon that looked brand new but when running it made a growling noise in the pipework every 30 seconds or so - fortunately the weather was such that it was not required on during the night. Planned to have a quick dinner on site only to find the kitchen was operating that evening. Turned out to be blessing in disguise as we instead drove to a Thai restaurant about 5 minutes away and had a fantastic meal there.
