Booked for a little weekend away as a birthday treat, hotel itself was lovely, staff were friendly, room was clean, bed was comfy, lovely shower facilities with great water pressure and hot water. Continental breakfast is good for convenience and quickness however would be absolutely 10/10 if there was a proper breakfast included. Other than that lovely location, close drive to view prints. Definitely will re visit and recommended to others.
