Just back after a week staying at Sheriff Lodge. On arrival we were met by the lovely owner, Ziz, who showed us to the lounge and gave us tea and cake, which was a thoughtful touch and most appreciated after our journey. We were then shown to our room, The Nest, a spacious room with an extremely comfortable 6 foot bed and large bathroom. The room is very well equipped, there is a powerful hairdrier, a fan, an electric heater, a Tassimo coffee maker and even a box of items which you may have forgotten. Breakfast was excellent every day, the fresh strawberries, blueberries and blackberries with yoghurt were delicious, so nice to have good quality fresh fruit rather than tinned prunes. Ziz cooks all breakfasts fresh and to order using local produce and they were all very moreish, the eggs benedict are a must, Ziz even makes her own hollandaise sauce (yummy), you do need a large appetite to finish the whole plate, so we shared one between 2. Ziz is a fountain of knowledge on the area, restaurants and places to visit and gives great recommendations and never makes you feel that you are keeping her from her jobs. Absolutely lovely place to stay.
