There was plenty of parking space. The room was rather small, but it was very comfortable. The bathroom was also tiny but functional and with an excellent shower. Good quiet location, close to the village centre.

Lovely clean room and the hot drinks were replenished often, we never ran out. Very helpful manager who let us in and gave us codes which were sent to whatsapp. Unfortunately, I had not updated my number with Booking.com so I never received them, totally my fault, but the codes by email as well as/ instead of WhatsApp should be considered.
