10/10 Exceptional

We had rented the cottage and loved it for privacy and convenient parking. It made handling the bags easy. There wasn’t a restaurant or any food included, but the recommended nearby restaurants turned out to be a delightful experience. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Just make sure to arrive before 5:30 PM as we were left with the understanding that staff were gone after that time.

10/10 Exceptional

The room is large, clean and comfortable, with a double sink and a separate shower and toilet. The only gripe I have is that there is no door to the shower, so it got a bit cold when we stepped out of the warm shower. There is a cozy lounge on the ground floor next to the reception, where complimentary tea, coffee, drinking chocolate and water are available throughout the day. We made full use of these as they saved us the hassle of boiling water in the kettle provided in the room. There are also complimentary washers and dryers with detergent provided as well. The young man at the reception (sorry I didn't get your name) is friendly and helpful. The staff also sent us directions and driving information which proved useful in finding our way to the motel. All in, a solid place to stay in.
