The best restaurants are a short stroll away so no designated driver needed. Super clean, very comfortable beds and bedding. We will definitely be back! ##### Linda Y.

I'd be very happy to return ##### andrew L. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James 20 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Overall, a lovely place to stay. Would love to come back. In the spirit of just sharing thoughts ( ie we’re not complaining!): 1. I think the front gate needs a bit of attention … bit tricky to open & close (fine for us, but might be tricky for elderly) 2. One of the bedside lamps in the twin room was rather wobbly. 3. We thought not having blinds in the bathrooms was a bit odd. Fine for the 3 of us, but I doubt my wife and daughter would have been comfortable. Just a thought! ##### James Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aaron Q. 16 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy ##### Aaron Q.
