"I had a very short stay for my daughter's uni graduation and am so fortunate I found this place online... the decor is so incredibly tasteful with lots of little touches that made me feel right at home (pillow spray, throws) and the most comfortable bed imaginable."

"Breakfast is continental style, with a twist- it's delivered out souse your room at your agreed time in a thermal hamper, everything you need is there- fresh croissants, jams, coffee, juice and amazing fruit/yogurt pots."

Decent stay overall

lovely roomextra touchesdusty roomoil radiator

I loved that the room was lovely and just like the photos. The bathroom was also Super clean! There were so many little extra touches to elevate the experience. The radio softly played music when I entered.

The room was dusty, for example, the shelves and remote control. Crumbs and dirt had collected on certain surfaces. The heating WASN'T on so I used the oil radiator.
