Staff was amazing. Hotel was clean and well maintained, but a little dated. Gardens and hotelare beautiful. Floors were very squeaky and water temp was very touchy in the shower. Room was warm, but we just opened the window during the day and closed it at night which made it just right. Overall we enjoyed this quirky, charming hotel.

The building is beautiful with great architecture, the rooms were quite spacious and very clean. Recently updated I believe. The lobby and bar, restaurant were lovely as well. Friendly staff too! My booking through Expedia did not go through and we were lucky they had availability and the manager was able to sort it all out.

The staff, and especially Aaron at reception were very friendly and helpful. The lobby, bar and dining areas were pleasant and nicely set up. Our room was clean but a little tired-looking and required electrical maintenance, including repairing the fan in the bathroom.

Beautiful hotel on the outside, friendly knowledgeable staff & good breakfast. The bed was painful to sleep in, black mold in the shower, air vent thick and fluffy with dust. It was disgusting! Parking isnt great but does the job, wifi is good and drink prices are reasonable. Easy hotel to find but it needs a good scrub & new matress

Hole property needs brought into the 21st century, we paid for a superior room !! If that was the superior I’d hate to see the standard room, bed was rock solid , bathroom was a disgrace…dirty looking, broken and loose tiles on walls, dirty grout and silicone, no double glazing, no air con or even a fan, 14”tv, every floorboard made a loud creaking noise, the hotel inspector would have a field day with this place……bad bad bad !!!!

The room needed updating, new carpet and the bathroom area needed some mould removal. Comfortable beds and quiet. Parking was a struggle, recommend parking on the main road. Just to note our room area building had no lifts.
