Dion and feona gave a very friendly welcome. dion even carried our bags to our room. the room included fresh milk and water in a mini fridge plus tasty muffins. Everything was spotlessly clean. parking at the back proved supremely useful.
the scaffolding outside was a bit of a distraction during breakfast.
