Monique made us very welcome on arrival, which was especially generous because we had been delayed at Gatwick by 90 minutes so it was after midnight when we arrived, and sent her husband to collect us from the train station.

The next morning we had a lovely breakfast with views of the lake and mountains. And after a hot day out and about, we sat in the garden chatting with Monique having a beer.

It was a brief stay, but Monique ensured we had everything we needed and were always welcome.
