Room with private external bathroom in this historic home that was like a living museum. Excellent value for money. Large, spacious with everything we needed for a good overnight stay. We feel privileged to have been able to stay here. We were also able to make use of a washing machine in the basement. Walking the Camino Torres this was an added advantage to our trip. We left very early the next morning, so could not make use of the well located cafe across the road for breakfast, but could use the house's kitchen to prepare breakfast. The house was a bit musty smelling given the age, but not problematic. The bedroom had a slippery carpet. We accidentally locked ourselves out of our bathroom (mentioning as a caution to guests). ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Graham 13 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Graham Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels with Parking in Chichester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chichester-Hotels-Hotel-With-Parking.0-0-d4600-thotelwithparking.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Unicus Krakow Old Town - Destigo Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hotel-Unicus-Krakow-Old-Town.h2733032.Hotel-Information) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Antalya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Antalya-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d481-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Romantic Hotels in Antalya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Antalya-Hotels-Romantic-Hotel.0-0-d481-tRomanticHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel Cardiff](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel-Cardiff.h2609745.Hotel-Information) > > [JAZ Belvedere - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sharm-El-Sheikh-Hotels-Jaz-Belvedere.h1400421.Hotel-Information) > > [Lamego Hotel & Life](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lamego-Hotels-Lamego-Hotel-Life.h2232922.Hotel-Information) > > [HiltonHotels Hotels in Kathmandu](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kathmandu-Hotels-Hilton-Hotels.0-0-d1938--bHiltonHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Chalet-Hôtel La Marmotte, La Tapiaz & SPA, The Originals Relais](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Les-Gets-Hotels-Chalet-Hotel-La-Marmotte.h1165680.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Entertainment in Greek Islands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greek-Islands-Hotels-Hotel-With-Entertainment.0-0-d6271742-thotelwithentertainment.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [TH Pila](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gressan-Hotels-TH-Pila.h6858025.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sunroute Plaza Shinjuku](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-Sunroute-Plaza-Shinjuku.h1699407.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Arcos de Montemar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torremolinos-Hotels-Hotel-Arcos-De-Montemar.h6660831.Hotel-Information) > > [Marina Hotels in Mallorca Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mallorca-Island-Hotels-Marina-Hotel.0-0-d602317-tmarinahotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Blaumar Hotel Salou](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salou-Hotels-Blaumar-Hotel-Salou.h526240.Hotel-Information) > > [Holmfirth Vineyard](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Holmfirth-Hotels-Holmfirth-Vineyard.h32873406.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Birmingham (BHM) to Dublin (DUB)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhm/dub/birmingham-to-dublin) ### Cars > [Car hire in Oakham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Oakham.d4868.Car-Hire-Guide) > > [Hertz Car Rentals In Portree](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hertz-Car-Rentals-In-Portree.d4320-c40.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) > > [Europcar Car Rentals In Greenway](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Europcar-Car-Rentals-In-Greenway.d3000435676-c14.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) > > [Car hire in Golders Green](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Golders-Green.d6144890.Car-Hire-Guide) > > [Enterprise Car Rentals In Hatfield](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enterprise-Car-Rentals-In-Hatfield.d7746-c15.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Activities > [Things to do in Ayr](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Ayr.d5583.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Palmanova Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palmanova.d6050487.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General > [Visit Llo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llo.dx6052358) > > [Visit Philippines](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Philippines.dx145)
