This was our 5th visit to The Waiting Room and it never disappoints. The owners communicate well before the visit. On arrival milk and biscuits left to welcome us. The place is always spotless and has everything you could possibly want for your stay. Super comfy bed too. It’s a little remote for transport and shops but that suits us fine. Love sitting in the lounge watching all the birds on the numerous bird feeders in the garden.Added bonus going in March/April this time, we had fields of sheep and tiny lambs all around us.10/10 from us x
