romantic getaway
fresh milk helpful staff
The location was ideal for exploring the area, a true hidden gem. our "double room" offered fresh milk from the bar (so thoughtful!) and bottled water by the beds. Such sweet, little extras. the staff was amazing from check-in to check-out. They were so helpful and warm.

a charming inn stay
fresh milk polite staff really good food
The room was clean. fresh milk was provided for tea and coffee, it was a nice touch. the staff were helpful, polite, and accommodating. i found the food to be really good. I enjoyed it .
The breakfast cereal selection was limited to granola with yoghurt served pre-portioned in a bowl. This might not suit all guests.
