Reviewed Mar 8, 2026Very peaceful, clean and spacious (didn't hear other guests (with children) even though they were next door). Staff efficient and friendly, serviced the room every day which was a nice touch. Great view and the Alpacas and the deer in the paddock opposite our lounge window were really delightful to watch (most rooms would have this same view as the paddock is quite large). We will definitely return - we stayed here because a friend recommend it, we were really happy we stayed here.
There is nothing I would say that I didn't like....
