Meadow View Guest House

10/10 Excellent
"Tucked away in a little hamlet, this delightful guest house is a gem of a find. Everything is well maintained, beautifully furnished, comfortable and clean. Breakfast was as good as it gets, all personally served at the table in the large modern kitchen diner. The staff were kind, helpful and with a good degree of local knowledge. There is a hot tub in the garden and just steps away from the local pub which serves good food. We have no hesitation in saying you will be very happy to stay there. We are in our late 70's and have travelled the world from the Waldorf Astoria in New York to The Banana Hostel in Haikou. This place is in our top two."
