We have enjoyed our stay at the Windmill Motel on many occasions finding the rooms very well presented and the adjoining restaurant very convenient for an enjoyable meal. The only disappointment is the Motel doesn't have any pet friendly rooms as we have found when travelling is becoming more available. We won't be staying at the Windmill from now on as we have a dog in our family, and she will be with us on our travels from now on. It is a shame but as I mentioned she is now part of our family and if she is not welcome, we will find somewhere we she is.
