Loved the nice soap/shower gel dispensers everywhere and the encouragement to recycle and use the food-waste caddy. The only thing that would have helped is a hand rail on the stairs - a couple of us were not 100% mobile and I was a bit concerned for their safety coming down the stairs without a hand rail. They actually managed fine and weren’t worried. Thanks for a lovely weekend!
