"Really lovely place to stay, lots of nice features - honesty bar with QR code to pay, with range of products including Champagne, also similarly, drinks in room and snacks. Visually, very well designed, boutique experience. I booked late at night after cancelled ferry and was contacted by owner immediately with information re stay."
"I was out all day, so basically came here to sleep. 2 issues. 1) I could not get any heating in the room, the communal areas were warm, but my room was unheated. 2) the smart TV did not have any internet so I couldn't log into Netflix. On the plus side, I had a bath & the bed was very comfortable. Useful tea/coffee facilities. Unfortunately I never got to try their breakfast."
