Over-the-top hearty breakfast!

Breakfast includes fresh fruit, cereals, juices, yoghurts, fresh toasts, bacon, coffee, and wide selection of homemade jams and marmalade. Guests are impressed with both the quality and quantity of the breakfast, which are more than enough to get you going all throughout the day.

Availability of Fresh Milk in the room is praised
Most guests appreciate the trays with selections of teas, biscuits, and most especially the access to fresh milk which is way better compared to UHT cartons. They prefer pouring fresh milk on their hot cup of tea or coffee compared to using UHT Long Life sachets.
positive:

Negative Reviews
negative:
Very low door entrance
Despite having extremely comfortable rooms, some guests are quite disappointed with the height or structure of the doorway. If you're a little taller, you would have to duck or else you'll hit your head on the beam for there is no sign above the door to warn guests.
negative:
Tight car park area
Some guests observed the slightly tight parking area. Most cars are closely parked to each other so there is not much space to open the doors and to get your cars out of the area smoothly.
negative:
No mobile phone signal at the property
Some guests are dissatisfied with lack of mobile phone signal within the area. As a result, it is harder for guests to communicate via cell phones. Searching for a mobile phone signal can be very frustrating since coverage is often a hit or miss.
