Dear Alasdair, Deidre and Robbie,

I am at last writing to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay with you in August!

Sorry that it has taken so long - suffice to say that life has been hectic.

We were one of the first families to stay at your beautiful home[ 7,8,9 August] and we

were just blown away by your warmth and helpfulness.

From the moment we arrived and were welcomed with tea and biscuits we felt very

much at home. The rooms were lovely and the beds comfortable. We really enjoyed

the scrumptious breakfasts and the chat! We were blessed with good weather and

had several walks in the lovely garden and along the drive and country roads. The

scenery is soul restoring!

We also appreciated your advice as to the best places to eat and places of interest

to visit in the area.Not to mention the snooker table which was great for Stephen and

Adam!  Thank you so much for a great stay. We would not hesitate to

recommend your B 'n B to friends and family.

Hope to visit you again sometime,
Best wishes,
DebbieSmyth . [and Stephen, Dorothy and Adam.]
