superb stay!
riverside situationimaginative choicesfresh fruit saladtired hallway
The riverside situation exceeded my expectations! the dinner featured imaginative choices like smoked venison salad and oxtail suet pudding! breakfast was generous, and the fresh fruit salad stood out. I found myself impressed. the room had a comfortable bed and a well appointed shower room!
I discovered the communal area leading to the bedrooms looked a little tired. The carpets could use some cleaning. I hope they address this minor detail soon.

quiet villagelovely roomexcellent service
The location is in a quiet village near the river. I found the peacefulness really beneficial for a relaxing night. i had a lovely room overlooking the garden and river. the staff provided excellent service throughout my stay.
The water advisory was not communicated before my arrival, requiring boiled water instead of bottled water. I would have preferred bottled water.
