I have only great things to say about this property, our room was something out of a novel, clean, spacious, and the balcony off the front was the cherry on top. And of course all the staff were incredible.

Unique, very friendly and personal
We unfortunately only spent one night in this fabulous hotel, but we definitely plan to return! It is just SO interesting, vibey, friendly and comfortable. The historic building, art everywhere, magnificent huge room - all wonderful!! A bathroom you could dance in. Lovely back garden. Huge own private balcony. We had the Baines room, one of the ten large rooms. The owners are super friendly and treat guests like old friends. We'll be back!
