to get started.

Staff very welcoming. Building very interesting, decor beautifully presented.

Nadine, United Kingdom

Great place and staff close to market and very comfortable

David, United States of America

Eclectic style and very close to town center. Very friendly staff.

James, Sweden

We booked a family room, it was very spacious with a separate lounge with a tv and mini fridge. There was a tv in the bedroom with 2 beds on a very spacious mezzanine level. The area was quiet on an evening so quiet to sleep. The breakfast room was beautiful with all you could eat breakfast continental and cooked. Great service and everyone was very helpful and friendly. We could leave our cases even after we had checked out. Will definitely return and recommend to friends.

John, United Kingdom

Surprised to be upgraded to a junior suite in the old stable block so very pleased with our stay. Will definately be staying here again.

Roberto, United Kingdom

The room was in the attic, all corners and angles, and very cozy. I could hear the water fountain in the garden when I opened up the wee window. The bathroom was all marble. LOVED the Hammam and sauna, which you reserve and you have all to yourself.

Sa;ldkfj;, United States of America

The staff was incredible and the rooms were clean and luxurious.

Sean, United States of America

“Cool, character property”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Deluxe Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
눉Room servicing wasn't really thorough, found a few things left behind from the previous guest, some quite obvious like a big "21st" birthday streamer tied across the chandelier. Didn't bother me but I did wonder about how thorough the servicing of the room was. Also no food options for dinner etc., you have to head out to a restaurant, though these are only 5 mins walk away.
눇Nice location, short walk to the inner city but also very quiet being a bit on the fringe. It's an old character property, apparently the mansion of a Baroness in the past which adds character to the hotel!

눉The bedroom no6 was given to myself and husband and bedroom no2 to our friends. Our room compared to their was dark and small the tv did not work. As we both paid the same price I felt that I should have has a similar room.

눉The room was cosy, but very small, to the point that one could pass the bed only sideways. The sound insulation to the neighboring rooms could also be better. The mattress was somewhat too soft.
눇Very nice breakfast buffet, good quality food, always topped up. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The house is charming, old wooden beams, nice backyard garden, everything suitably and tastefully decorated.
