Salyards Mansion
Really cozy rooms with ornate, historic details. Loved the light continental pastries and local coffee in the morning as well as the sauna late at night after a long day. Kirsten made us feel welcomed despite a double booking upgraded our stay and gave us a bottle of Prosecco to ring in the New Year ...

Out Check In Person was very helpful and very nice. Our room however was not ready by the 4pm check-in. The breakfast also was okay. I would not recommend the eggs however as they were very chunky. The room was nice but industrial. likes the extra room in the suite.
