    We didn't take advantage of breakfast, so can't rate it, but the location and accommodation are top-notch, and the hosts were delightful and very helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

    The English breakfast was well prepared with plenty of additional cereals, yoghurts, fruit, etc. Our location was ideal for our visit to the local theatre and the local nightlife.
