charming countryside retreat

peaceful locationcomfortable bedample parkingmissing footpath
The location was peaceful, with fine views. the bed in my executive double room was wonderfully comfortable. ample parking was available on the hotel grounds. Finding a space was never an issue.
the road to the hotel did not have a footpath, so i couldn't take an evening stroll.

mixed experience at the hotel

narrow accesslimited privacy
the narrow access roads proved quite difficult to navigate. i found the lack of nearby dining options inconvenient (it required driving elsewhere). the limited privacy due to the attic room's location within the house also detracted from the stay.
