Rooms are extremely comfortable, quiet and well equipped. The delicious welcome treats and personalised card in the room are a lovely touch. Hotel is in a great location for long walks in the forest or to visit the local shops/restaurants. We didn’t eat at the hotel on this occasion but plan on doing so in the future as dining area looks very inviting. We will be using this hotel on a regular basis as we have family and friends nearby. ##### Teresa Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michele 16 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Faultless Absolutely faultless.
