What a lovely hotel. So much original character. Really enjoyed it here. The location was beautiful especially with all the greenery around. Breakfast was lovely, a buffet with plenty to choose from. The best thing about the hotel besides the character was the staff, the Owner/manager was very friendly, welcoming and seems very proud of the hotel. Overall it was definitely a place I would recommend others to visit. The only request I would make is that when you book a room, ask for one in the main building if you can 🙂
