Amy and John were really friendly and hospitable hosts. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Good facilities including an honesty fridge, an excellent view from our room, a tasty breakfast and a brilliant location just a few minutes' walk from the town centre. Covid procedures all followed too. Would happily recommend to others. The only slight negatives were low water pressure in our room (however it turns out this is a temporary fault which was only reported to them by the previous couple and they hadn't had a chance to have it fixed before we arrived) and a lack of air conditioning in the room (but lovely big windows and I'm sure they would have provided a fan if we'd asked for one).
