charming hotel

attentive staffconvenient locationgood breakfastfaulty radiator

I found the staff very attentive and accommodating. the location is convenient, very close to the park and with direct access to fields. It was excellent for walks. breakfast included a good standard and i enjoyed the meal i had there.

I did find that the radiator in my room was faulty. the broken temperature regulator made it so hot. I even ended up burned because of it.

I stayed in a double room. i found the decor kept with the building's quaintness. i also liked the dyson hairdryer provided. I thought that was a nice touch.

I had issues with the room i was given. i found the water pressure was quite low. the bathtub was not very clean. It also did not hold water properly. i think they need to work on these problems

The staff seemed to prioritize canine guests over humans. There was a fridge full of dog food in the bar. Dogs roamed freely throughout the hotel. I found this a bit much and definitely not people friendly. the bar staff created a noisy atmosphere. There was a lack of professionalism that detracted from the experience.
