fantastic overnight stay

friendly stafflocal beersprivate garden
i enjoyed the food very much. the staff members were friendly and helpful. the bar offered a good selection of local beers and spirits (prices were reasonable). i liked having a private garden with my room in the paddock, it felt luxurious.
i noticed some scuffed paintwork throughout the hotel, it could use some touching up.

The room was smaller than i anticipated, especially considering the price. closet space was really limited. I struggled to hang all my clothes. the staff seemed polite, but they weren't exactly warm or cute. i mean, a smile wouldn't hurt, would it?
