Dave and Deborah are the warmest host you can get, and their place is very clean along with very clear communication during the booking process, this was our first visit and it went very well, there is free parking on premises. We felt like home, early morning hot breakfast in their lake view breakfast room was a delight. Also with lovely conversations with them during breakfast and they also gave us some fresh apples right from the tree, auch lovely people.

The grounds were fabulous with the terrace and exellent lighting,the interior of the place was excellent very much wow ,the decor was fantastic ,you couldn't fault the staff perfect,the only thing that let it down was the room !! We booked a superior double !!! It was extremely small the lighting bedside was food not to bright but if you wanted to read the main light was awfully it was really bad,there was so many chips out of skirting boards and door frames coffee splashes up the wall ,door stop behind door ripped off ,and where the wardrobe door had been on and removed they hadn't made good the frame bare wood , this is only my opinion its a cozy standard at best ,but cannot fault the rest, even down to the doggo towels for paws when coming back from a walk .

We had a very good experience at Jintana Thai Restaurant. The food was delicious and had an authentic Thai taste.
We ordered the Gai Pad Takrai lemongrass chicken sizzler, which was beautifully prepared, full of flavour and extremely tasty. It was one of the highlights of our meal.
