"The room was very adequate for my family of four. The beds were very comfortable and we had a great sleep. I knew there wasn’t an en suite so that was fine. We had a lovely breakfast in the morning and the staff were lovely. It reminded me of staying in guests houses when we were younger around Ireland and there’s something lovely about that. It was perfect for our budget and needs."

"The outside is very well maintained and beautiful. Loved the ease of checking in and how you could just use a simple key fob. The suite was clean and had a lot of nice little touches throughout! We enjoyed the fireplace in the living room area as well. The only issue we had was with the shower. The water didn’t seem to stay hot long enough for two people to take showers and it got the floor wet more than expected."
