A short walk from the town centre but far enough away to be quiet. ##### Malcolm Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kamal 16 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location, friendly staff and fun stay ##### Kamal Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mldred 10 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great Time We loved the Drake!

The rooms are gorgeous and the staff is amazing. But the main reason i love this place so much is the attention to detail: comfortable beds, home made shortbread in the rooms, the toiletries are exceptional quality and each room has its own personality. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Juliet 27 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent Really lovely stay here .
