Disappointed

I was really looking forward to the stay. Unfortunately on arrival the room was not available due to a septic tank problem. I was also told that the room advertised wasn't as such so i was really disappointed. I was provided with a sub standard room in the main house with the owners who weren't exactly welcoming or apologetic. Had to share a bathroom which always seemed to be occupied. So all in all very disappointing. I would advise travellers to call in advance to make sure everything is still available as advertised.

Fab B&B - experience with Expedia was poor.

Booked obviously through Expedia. They provided the wrong address, and location. To top it off they never informed Sian who owned the B&B that we had booked, she was out for the evening and we had to wait for her to return to get in. Sian was very apologetic although it wasn’t her fault, the stay was great, if we are ever back in the area we will stay with her again. Never using Expedia again.
