Really lovely spot for a b&b!!!! Staff were really nice and helpful!! Breakfast was really lovely - particularly as a veggie!!!! Room was too small for two and the only reason why facilities scored a four. It was ok for one night for two of us, but wouldn’t want any longer. Would definitely recommend!!

We’ll be back!

What a lovely place! The food was excellent, a very good choice of drinks, the room was really comfortable and the location meant we were no more than a 30 minute drive to any other part of the island. What really sets this place apart, however, is the staff; very friendly and helpful, and we felt genuinely looked after during our entire stay. Thank you!

Staff friendliness and helpfulness was outstanding. Meals generous and hot but rather unimaginative. Staircase to bedroom required great care to negotiate safely - would not pass modern safety standards.
