Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a wonderful experience with its lovely rooms and superb service. The location is beautiful, and the dining options are satisfying. However, the hotel lacks some key facilities and has a few pricing issues.
This hotel is a hidden gem with lovely rooms and superb service. The beautiful garden adds a peaceful touch, but dining options could be improved. Overall, a great value for money option in a beautiful area.
The hotel is located in a beautiful area and offers superb service. The rooms have thoughtful touches and a big comfy bed, but lack a chair or space to put one's clothes. The restaurant can get hot, but that's to be expected in a pub setting.
