Good Stay at a Charming Farmhouse
excellent servicetasty optioncomfy bedmissing sign
The team provided excellent service. They accommodated a room change smoothly. Breakfast included varied and tasty options. The location offers convenient access near East Midlands Airport. The bedroom was spacious with a super comfy bed.
I noticed a step down into the room. A door sign would improve safety.
