Slightly quirky style with turrets and leaded windows which was different. Nice spa/jacuzzi and small pool. However it is looking very tired and in need of attention and maintenance such as windows didn’t fit properly and in need of painting and the bathroom wasn’t in very good condition and very basic crockery etc

Nice place.
Our stay was good. Check in was very pleasant and he was very helpful. We did have sporadic trouble accessing the wi-fi, and our only other issue was the placement of the toilet tissue holder made it uncomfortable to use the toilet.
