We stayed at The Old Bakery for a couple of nights to attend a wedding 20 mins away. I originally considered a hotel until I found this gem. Checkin was easy and didn't require interaction with he owner, secure quiet perfectly spacious with various options nearby if you wish to get a takeaway or dine out. The WiFi is good and no issues encountered. Interacting with the owner Natacha was seamless either over phone or via wassap for the odd item here or there. Would definitely recommend and we would stay again . Sitting outside on private decking in the sun was relaxing and the sounds of nature abundant but not overwhelming .. Enjoy your stay if you choose to stay here ... I don't think anyone would regret it at all ...
