Çok temiz, şirin bir çatı katı odasında kaldım, manzara ve konum çok iyiydi. Yürüyerek gole 15 dk da ulaşabiliyorsunuz. Tek sorun banyo çok küçük ve kullanışsız, kapısından içeri girmek bile sıkıntılıydı.

Two words...A Sanctuary On arrival, the setting for Brooklands was breath taking. Woodlands and mountains were the view from my window...absolutely stunning. My plan for the bank holiday was to recharge my batteries, take a step back from my life and breathe. Travelling on my own, I wanted to stay somewhere that was traditional, homely and safe. Brooklands was indeed everything I wanted and more. Karen and Andy were the perfect hosts, made me feel straight at home from the moment I got there. Extremely friendly and approachable, and they made you feel incredibley welcome. The breakfasts were delicious...Karen makes the most perfect poached eggs so make sure you sample them when you visit. For me Brooklands was a home from home, and I have already booked again for next year. It really was the sanctuary I needed. And I can't wait to return next year. Thank you Karen and Andy I've had an extremely memorable weekend xxx
