Honestly, I haven’t seen a bathroom like the en-suite in our room since the 80’s. John and Elica are a nice couple but they have let themselves down. The hand basin had a crack in it and wallpaper was peeling off the wall. It was generally tired and not conducive to the room rate charged. We were on a road trip and this was the only blot on an otherwise enjoyable trip. Frankly, room 6 should not be used until this is rectified. Honestly, as far as condition of the room is concerned, this is the worst B&B we have stayed in for some time. Very disappointed
