Nice place overall - clean and well kept. Owners are nice and friendly. The bad part is the sleep situation. For the room we had, there was a very bright security light from the neighbouring property up the hill, and the light shone onto the thin curtains of our room, and when the tree branches moved inbetween it created quite a light show in our room. There was a 2nd security light in the garden right behind which would come on intermittently, it was very bright and lit up the whole room, this happened throughout the night, maybe because of wind. Then the owners also have a dog, which barks very loudly and a bit too often. The dog was quiet at night though, except when the owners went out one night and he barked for 90 minutes solid. So those are the bad bits, we came away feeling a little sleep deprived. But I expect some of the other rooms don't face these issues. The location is good, and breakfast was nice.
