    I had a wonderful stay at Ivy Guest House, where the hospitality from Kate and Paul made me feel genuinely welcomed. The room was spotlessly clean and comfortable, with a charming decor. Breakfast was deliciously prepared, featuring locally sourced ingredients that truly delighted me.

    Shower temperatures fluctuated during peak times!!! A better sitting area in rooms would enhance comfort!!! More variety in savory options could elevate the experience!!! Quite basic in some areas for a higher price!!!

    The King Room with Mountain View was a highlight. the stunning vistas made for a relaxing stay. Amenities like the flat-screen TV and electric kettle for tea were nice touches.

    The shower had fluctuating temperatures during peak times, which was a bit annoying. while the menu was solid, it could use a few more veggie/vegan options to cater to different tastes.

    hospitality warmth
    afternoon tea
    cozy room
    room seating

    Two nights at Ivy Guest House felt magical. The afternoon tea blew me away with delicious treats and lovely mock cocktails served in beautiful china. Kate and Paul radiated warmth and hospitality, making every moment feel special. The room was a Standard King, impeccably clean and cozy, with a flat-screen TV and an electric kettle for tea. The location of the guest house was perfect, right in the village center, and having free parking at the back was a bonus. The decor throughout the building was charming and added to the unique ambiance. One minor hiccup was the absence of a proper sitting area in the room, which would have been nice for relaxing. while breakfast was generally great, I would have liked more savory options. Still, I’d highly recommend this delightful spot.

    Beautifully decorated rooms and great service made our stay fantastic. Kate and Paul are super welcoming, and breakfast was absolutely top-notch. The place is a quiet escape, just a stroll away from local attractions in the village center.
