Lovely place to stay!

Lovely location. Bar was really nice with great selection of food and drinks. The room although a little small for us was very nice with a lovely boutique vibe. The manager Matt was beyond helpful and took time to speak with us and make sure that our stay was as planned. Very pleased and would definitely stay there again.

My overnight stay was good from check-in with polite staff to check-out the next day. My room was cosy and big enough for one occupant, very clean and a bed that was one of the best Ive slept in for a long while, so comfortable! Breakfast was excellent and plentiful. Would definitely recommend and look forward to returning in the future.
