Lovely bunkhouse, could do with better cooking facilities it’s difficult to cook a meal using a microwave. Could have been provided with more glasses and china. We had to buy more glasses and mugs from the community shop.

Very simple property but had everything we needed. There is a chip shop next door, a shop a 2 min walk away and a pub right across the road and the locals were all very friendly. Would definitely recommend.

We were very impressed by this accommodation and felt the term ‘bunkhouse’ undervalues it. The caretaker was very welcoming, shops nearby make self catering easy. Comfortable bed, and nice clean bathroom. Anyone reading this can be assured that a reservation here will not disappoint.

It was nice. Pretty clean. I will say the beds arent very comfy but it was okay for a couple of nights. Also the glowing exit signs in the bedroom was rather annoying at night but doubt there is much to do that. The check in was super easy with codes for the doors sent to you. I liked that the room locked

Thank you Jessie, we are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. I'm not sure there is much we can do about the exit sign as they are a fire requirement, but will see if they can be dimmed a bit within regulations.

Very good value
Obviously recently refurbished. It was fresh, clean and very well located. A minor consideration was the bathroom was next door to the double room and the bedroom was on a key pad, it made me a bit anxious of getting locked out when going to the toilet in the night.

Thank you Karen, glad you enjoyed your stay and thanks for the feedback on the bathroom. Not sure how we'll address it, but will give it some thought to see if we can.
