    The property was lovely, location was good as my partner and I enjoyed the walk into town each day. The decor inside was lovely and made the property feel even more homey and designer. The bed was super comfy and facilities in the room up to scratch.

    Every detail so carefully thought through, gorgeous interior design. I’m now jealous for a colour sample of the interior and the beautiful under floor heating was so unique. Not only was gluten free bread provided for breakfast but really good gluten free bread, much appreciated.

    The welcome from Mark at the front desk was excellent; the entrance lobby's look, feel and smell were all gorgeous and opulent. The hotel had a calm and luxurious feel, great lighting, lovely public areas. In our room the shower was paticularly good (we love design details like the ledgeless showertray that magically didn;t overflow and the marble-like surfaces). The view of the inner courtyard thrugh our window was really nice - planting and twinking lights made it feel special.

    This is such a luxy place to stay without the huge price tag. We got upgraded on arrival and the one bedroom suite was just gorgeous. The interior design if the hotel is gorgeous and it even has a signature scent which is just lovely. We couldn't have been happier with our stay and the staff were so lovely. Would recommend and want to visit again.
