Charming hotel

What a gem! Beautiful, old fashioned and charming - a break from the normal sleek, ultra-modern hotels. Front desk staff were lovely and we appreciated having breakfast in the room due to an early departure

Claire

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The rooms are nice and clean and cosy. However they’re not sound proof! Can hear everything from the rooms above or below. I was kept up by a couple in the room below me arguing. And it went on and on. There is nobody at the front desk after 8pm. There is an emergency number to contact the caretaker but I wasn’t aware of that number. The front desk staff should bring it to the attention to those checking in. There isn’t any staff about until midday. And they leave in the evening at 8. However they’re very friendly when you do meet them. I like the Inn and it’s old look. And the sherry left out in the front room in the evening to enjoy is a nice touch. Just disappointing when one has to hear the other guest as though they’re in the same room! And even worse when the voices get raised. Not fun to listen to.
