Really good Stay!
vegan options delicious breakfast efficient form
I found the breakfasts EXCELLENT, particularly the wide selection available each morning. Virginia emailed a form to select options in advance, very efficient. I appreciated having so many vegan options. My partner loved the homemade granola.
The bins weren't emptied daily. I think this is very minor.

wonderful hosts and tasty breakfast
lovely hosts comfortable bed
I found the hosts to be lovely. the room and view were good, and the bed proved comfortable. the hosts gave good suggestions for places to visit or dine around the area. They had great knowledge of what to do and see.
having to. a biscuit or two in the room. some hot chocolate, would have been good. a pot of coffee would be better than a cup brought after the fruit juice.
