8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
Friendly staff and a superb breakfast in the morning, which had high quality ingredients and a good sized portions. Nice touches like mini biscuits and hot chocolate in room refreshments. It is all located in a nice property.
Top floor is steep to access, and rooms there get very hot in warm weather. Breakfast time slot booking system is a bit limiting unless you're in quick if you have limited flexibility.

Excellent, quiet accommodations just a short walk from restaurants, public transport and a grocery store. The staff are phenomenal. Breakfast is fantastic in a beautiful setting.
Nothing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

ALL FACILITES WERE GOOD,. BREAKFAST MENU AND FOOD GOOD STANDED. BECAUSE OF THE POOR WEATHER AND THE DISTANCE TO THE CITY WE HAD TO USE A LOT OF EXPENSIVE TAXI'S . HELEN THE MINE HOST WAS VERY PLEASANT AND HELPFUL SHE EVEN TOOK US TO THE STATION ON ARE DEPARTURE DAY.
BECAUSE OF THE PRICE (£130.00) PER NIGHT WE DID EXPECT BETTER FACILITIES.
