"Our stay at The Loft was so relaxing and just what we needed for a nice weekend away. Situated right in town just across the road from gorgeous shops and cafes. Check in was super easy and staff were so friendly. Parking was easy with their own carpark which was easy to park a bigger car. The amenities in the room were ample and everything was so clean and tidy. We will definitely be booking again and have been recommending to friends and family as it was so perfect!"
