Lovely place to stay. Nicely decorated, with lots of attractive little touches - like coffee pod machine and milk frother, well-equipped kitchen, and attractive, coordinating furnishings. Everything was well-maintained, with nothing that looked worn or past its best.

Superb. Would definitely stay again.
Great service. I couldn’t fault anything. Beautifully clean. Great space in bathroom plus magnifying mirror, hot towel rail beside basin so could hang hand towel close (unlike many other places). Loved that there were 2 chairs at a spacious desk so no negotiation needed!! Well appointed kitchen with seating at island bench. Spacious layout.
