Lovely stay on the river
"We loved the balcony overlooking the river. We made good use of the hot tub after our local adventures. It was a pleasant walk along the river to town. The staff was so kind and helpful! I got Lolly’s name but the person who greeted us in the afternoon was lovely and informative also!"
