    cozy room
    comfortable bed
    spacious bathroom
    kitchen noise

    The room was beautifully decorated and spacious, really giving off a cozy vibe. I loved the comfortable bed. I slept like a baby! The bathroom featured a rainfall shower that felt fabulous. I appreciated the quality toiletries provided. The noise from the adjacent kitchen in the morning was quite disruptive. I also noticed that the heating was set too low upon arrival. It would have been nice to have extra bedding available just in case. My experience was enjoyable, but a few improvements could elevate it further.

    great location

    can recommend for a swift stopover

    Comfortable room, spacious bathroom, with a large shower that includes quality toiletries, the location is also ideal with free parking and easy access to nearby walking trails and a bustling bar/lounge area for unwinding after a day of exploration.

    Nothing could be improved.

    unwelcoming check-in
    cold room

    My experience was marred by an unwelcoming check-in from a staff member, who seemed indifferent and unpleasant. This initial encounter set a negative tone for my stay. The discomfort from the cold room on the second night was unbearable. I was left shivering in my clothes despite asking for assistance.

    cozy decor
    tasty food
    friendly staff
    hard bed
    tricky shower

    The location was perfect, loved the comfy room and cozy decor. The canal trail nearby was a nice surprise, and the food at the restaurant was super tasty. The staff were friendly. Great stay overall!

    the shower temperature was tricky to figure out, and the bed was too hard to sleep well.

    cozy room
    top-notch breakfast
    kitchen noise

    We had a lovely stay, the room was real cozy and decorated right nice! Breakfast over at the pub was top-notch! But blimey, the noise from the kitchen at crack of dawn was a bit of a bother. Still, we'd come back in a heartbeat!

    spacious room
    cozy evenings

    The kids loved the nearby playground, and it was great to explore with our colleagues. The log burner in the cottage added a cozy touch to our evenings.

    For dads, it would be great if there were more activities for kids.

    Lovely stay with great decor

    The bathroom featured a fantastic rainfall shower, and the bed was comfortable. Although we enjoyed meals at the nearby pub, the noise from the kitchen was a bit disruptive during early hours. A charming place that we would revisit!

    I love the location next to the pretty canal, perfect for scenic walks! The room is cozy and beautifully decorated, helping me feel right at home. Plus, the staff is friendly and the dining options exceeded my expectations.

    The noise from the kitchen can be a bit bothersome in the morning.
