This is a small but perfectly formed boutique hotel. The staff are helpful, knowledgeable and friendly, especially the manageress Sue, she has a good sense of humour, very funny! The room was very clean and comfortable with a hair drier, the breakfast was very good with lots to choose from, cooked to order eggs, cereals, different chesees, jams, pastries etc.... More

Also really clean, nice staff, very helpful guys. Simple breakfast, but I am not used to eat in the morning, so it's ok. The... More
