Many thanks for your review. I am disappointed that we did not get your breakfast service right, especially because you mention that you were otherwise pleased with your stay. None of the problems you encountered should have happened, avoidable mistakes are always disappointing because they are just that - avoidable! Our sincere apologies for the issues you encountered , hopefully you will consider a return visit and we look forward to seeing you again regards Molly
