Lovely place, lovely people. Nice location if you like some where rural. Dogs loved the walk around the ponds and loved barking at the rabbits even more. Yes the bed is hard. Ok for a couple of nights, wouldn't like it for more than a couple of nights though, ( this could easily be remedied by a mattress topper at little expense). You will need a car to get out n about, but really you expect that when you book a stay here. Do your research as to location etc.
