Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Property is very nice, breakfast was delicious and the staff very kind too. Reason for the 3 stars: location directions and address were not accurate, we had to drive around to finally find it. This week the pick hot temperatures were not a surprise, however we would have appreciated a better ventilation system if not a portabile AC. The room was very very hot.

We very much enjoyed our stay at The Harcourt Arms. On arrival we were shown to a much bigger room than we were expecting. Very comfortable bed. Nespresso machine and lovely tea bags in the room. The staff couldn't do enough for you. Extremely clean throughout. Fantastic bar with so much choice. Excellent breakfast. Highly recommend.
