evening meal friendly staff small room awkward placement
The evening meal was home cooked and delicious. breakfast had many options. the staff were friendly. They ensured my stay was special.
My room didn't match photos online and felt small. the wardrobe was difficult to access due to its placement. It was right next to the bed, awkward placement.

remote location inconsistent heating
The location proved more isolated than I anticipated. The distance to town was significant. The room's heating was inconsistent, offering little control over the temperature. Dinner was a letdown. The food seemed pre-made and reheated which was disappointing.
