Booked double room which was very small, small double bed against one wall which made it difficult to get out of bed to use toilet without disturbing partner. On the plus side it was very clean and had tea & coffee making facilities. Ok for one night stay but wouldn’t want to stay for longer.

Decor, facilities and the check in process was excellent. Bathroom was too small for my liking. Can’t give an assessment on the staff as I never met them. Calls into question the focus of some aspects of the questionnaire if the only contact was a remote online process.

This was a nice place, but the room was really small. Since the food options on sunday night and monday were really limited I had to get things at the grocery store. No fridge or suitable place to eat. Put my milk on the windowsill, and it fell off! I had a much better experience in their other property. Regardless, the owner snd staff were helpful.
