David and I would just like to say how much we enjoyed our stay in the Posthouse Annexe.
We could not have been made more welcome if we had been your family.
Nothing was too much trouble for you and you were very helpful. The Annexe is a credit to you both and we look forward to booking again next year.
Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable.
