A beautiful property with wonderful hosts. Bed was great, tub was wonderful, but a bit long for me. I loved the cozy robe. Breakfast in a lovely breakfast room was very good.

Anna and Douglas have created an absolute gem here. We were blown away by their welcome. The room was positively palacial - better than many international 5* hotels I’ve stayed in. Sunday breakfast in the immaculate dining room was a real treat. Can’t recommend this place highly enough.

Lovely facilities . Added extras made it special, bonus chocolates from the chocolate factory up the road was special . Owners dislike Expedia bookings and made it known

A delightfully quiet and extremely well maintained property. Spacious rooms with everything you could possibly need. Anna and her team were so helpful and friendly. The location is perfect as it’s in the heart of town but not on the main road. An amazing breakfast spread. The only regret is that we didn’t have time to stay longer. Will definitely be staying there when back in that beautiful part of the world (:
