We felt very welcomed by Dotty. The property is very central and super convenient. The room was very spacious and with a lovely view into the beautiful garden. Toilet is private but not ensuite. I enjoyed the breakfast chatting to other guests in the kitchen. It felt very human and connecting. Thanks Dotty we will visit again.
