Positive: What about incredible find. The Smugglers more than lived up to its 5* reviews . Lovely warm welcome from the owners Will and Stacey. Room impeccably clean. The food was absolutely excellent. My wife and I both think the evening meal we had in the Bistro and 2x breakfasts were the best food we've eaten out in ages. Beautifully presented and cooked to perfection. Many thanks to everyone. Please keep doing what you do. It's spot on!
Negative: Nothing negative to report.
Summary: Fantastic stay. Exceeded all expectations.
