We had a very enjoyable stay, and will definitely come back. The receptionist Mary was extremely helpful and couldn't do enough to make our stay comfortable. The only slight negative was at breakfast. The toast arrived as soon as we got seated, so was cold when we ate it, and it felt a bit rushed. Maybe leave the toast until people order their cooked breakfast. Otherwise we enjoyed everything about it
