The staff in that hotel are outstanding. We felt very welcommed at the very first moment. This is how a hotel/inn should be. A great breakfast served in the morning and the room was clean, comfy and provides more than enough space. Just amazing stay! Will definitely recommend this Inn and come again. 5/5 from us.

The room was lovely nice welcome gift of cookies. Clean and comfy bed. Only disappointment was the breakfast. Didn’t realise it would be delivered to our room. Would have much preferred going to sit down in a proper breakfast room. The choice was also limited. If you don’t like eggs you were left without much choice.
