Likes:
It was a 3 minute walk to the party venue. It is a beautiful Georgian house furnished in keeping with the period. The proprietor was friendly and most helpful - providing invaluable information.
Dislikes:
There was no central heating turned on - but the owner kindly provided an electric heater in the bedroom and an elecetric blanket so that we were certainly not cold.
