Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Convenient location for the area & dog friendly which is always a bonus.
Negative: Paid for a room which we did not get due to poor organisation of the host. Bed was uncomfortable. Breakfast was an eclectic mix with no idea what exactly was available. Overpriced
Summary: Great spot but not for us.
