Property was a beautiful boutique hotel with lovely gardens and great staff. With it being a boutique hotel however, some of the amenities like the bathroom were showing their age and not up to date with certain facilities. Overall a lovely place to stay

A bit disappointed.
Building getting a little tired. Parking not under cover in an area full of puddles and potholes. Not value for money.
