It is a quaint property of yester year in excellent condition. The staff were very accomodating and the food options excellent and very well cooked and prepared. The staff motto on their T shirts was: Make Danseys Pass Great Again, and they certainly did that. We really enjoyed our stay.

Well what a beautiful old hotel this is, WOW, only faults were room a little small and had shared tea/coffee area but that not a biggy, as we rated everything excellent, comfy bed, very clean, tidy room, staff awesome, dinner was out the gate and breakfast and atmosphere unreal, garden bar awesome, would highly recommend this hotel, the drive out was a tad scary for me as roads very narrow but thatadds to the adventure, so much history as well at the hotel
