    We had the Wordsworth suite and was two rooms one a bedroom the other a lounge. Very comfortable stay, just wish the bed had been slightly larger. Very clean and nice views from both bedrooms. Hopefully we will be back one day!

    Location was brilliant only 100 yards to bus stop, village centre and no need to use car due to lots of walks available from doorstep. Parking availability was a big plus at this property.
