Set in a beautiful, peaceful location, this was a wonderful place to stay. Although we were only there for one night, our room was lovely and ready for us on arrival. The staff were exceptionally welcoming and helpful, making us feel at home from the moment we arrived. A delicious breakfast was also included, which was a great way to start the day.

The staff are so lovely at this hotel. The service has been absolutely amazing. We were checked in by Jordan who was fantastic. Also the cleaning lady on the third floor whose name I didn’t get was so lovely to our little boy. It was his birthday and he was made to feel really special. We would definitely stay again.
