A quick "Hello" from me - Geraldine your host at By the River. I live at the property and you'll be choosing to stay as part of my home in your self contained en suite rooms. You will probably bump into me during your stay either running the cafe on site or out looking after my flowers and keeping the place neat and tidy.
