"We loved our stay here. It was a bit chilly when we first arrived but getting the fire going soon sorted that. It was such a comfy home to stay in and an excellent base for exploring the area. Would absolutely recommend"

"WARNING: only hotel in the world with a 16:00 check in. If you can’t be bothered to staff the hotel at least leave a key box like every other hotel. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to waste waiting for 16:00 so checked into the Beachfront hotel in town for the same price and standard check in."
