    easy exploration

    perfect base for city strolls and park views

    during our recent stay, we were thrilled to discover that the windmill was less than a mile away, along with the charming All Saints Parish Church just a few steps from our hotel, making it super easy to explore and soak in the local atmosphere while enjoying the picturesque views.

    pub noise

    comfortable stay but minor noise issues

    The spacious bathroom impressed us with its modern design and quality amenities. The bed offered exceptional comfort, ensuring a good night's sleep.

    We occasionally heard noise from the pub across the road.

    missing breakfast option

    Superb stay with my pup

    Had a lovely night here! The bar area was super chill for us and our dog, which was a big plus. Breakfast had lots of choices, and the food was really good without breaking the bank. Would’ve liked a set breakfast option with juice and pastries, though.

    freestanding bath
    dining experience

    Perfect for a couple's retreat

    The bathroom was just stunning, had this freestanding bath that made everything feel like a luxury retreat. Not to mention, the dining experience was top-notch—had dinner that really made the stay special, like something you’d expect in a high-end restaurant.

    It wasn’t exactly pocket change, but honestly worth it.

    Charming, Charming, Charming

    I loved my spacious Standard Double Room, beautifully decorated with modern touches while preserving its vintage charm. The gourmet breakfast was a delightful treat, featuring cheesy omelets and fresh croissants that made my mornings feel special. The cozy pub atmosphere, complete with unique cocktails, really enhanced my stay and made me feel right at home!

    vintage décor
    modern comforts
    stunning views
    low beams

    The Standard Double Room boasted charming vintage décor paired with modern comforts, making it a cozy spot for relaxation. The surrounding countryside offers stunning views, perfect for a peaceful retreat.

    Low beams throughout the building definitely posed a challenge. I spent too much time ducking to avoid them, which made relaxation a bit more difficult. the lack of a fridge in the room was inconvenient for storing drinks, especially during warmer weather. Dining was another hurdle. meals were overpriced and the presentation didn’t meet expectations, with the lasagna particularly underwhelming considering its price.
