“Great accomodation but beware of the owners!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 January 2007
4
people found this review helpful

This property only has three rooms so you receive very personal service. A very warm welcome was received, the room was great, breakfast hot and served at 8.30am precisely. However, our stay was spoiled on the morning of check out by a knock on the door at 10.55am (check out is 11am) by the wife asking us if she could service the room!!!

This call and her subsequent reaction when I said we would be ready in 15 minutes has left us with a very bad opinion of the owners. We were at a wedding the previous night and had asked the (male) owner if we could check out slightly later than 11am. He had said it wouldn't be a problem but had obviously had not communicated this to his wife.

One of the other guests is a very successful Inn Keeper in New England who also experienced the "service call", which left him completely unimpressed.

We won't be staying again as a result.
