Compact but not overly so, with plenty of open space and good sight lines to keep an eye on the dogs. Nicely furnished, warm and cosy. Clean and everything seemed well taken care of. Really secure outside for dogs too - the parking area is gated, and the little fenced off-leash garden is brilliant. Excellent pasties and cinnamon buns left for us were a welcome treat as well. If I really have to nitpick, a second roll of toilet paper and some basic shampoo/shower gel (even just miniatures) would be appreciated, and the toilet seat doesnât stay up which was a bit awkward as a guy! Thanks for a lovely stay - weâd love to come back, if youâll have us!
