"Really beautiful and serene hotel experience with rich history. The town is absolutely picturesque and welcoming. The hotel tries its best to make guests feel welcome and comfortable. The garden room was adorable. It is a bit small, but it didn’t make a difference once you enjoy the private terrace. Breakfast was delicious on site, as well as the 3 course dinner you can reserve. Staff were all very sweet and helpful if you needed anything. Very quaint countryside option that is super close to town center with ample onsite parking. The town itself is not accessible friendly per se, so be prepared to walk up stairs and cobble stone streets."

"The hotel was lovely, slightly dated, but very clean with kettle and coffee pod machine in the room. Very modern toilet and shower. Towels were white, fluffy and soft. The bed was so comfortable. Staff were all extremely pleasant and helpful. However, I would reserve the dining area in the evening as it was busy with a 30 minute wait for a table. I would definitely recommend the hotel"
