8/10 Good
"Check in was great. The lady behind the desk was friendly and explained everything. We stayed in a balcony king, which was great in the morning. However the doors to the balcony provide little to no noise insulation due to the large gap at the bottom. Shower had lots of power, but needs a better shower head. Parking was OK, but I imagine if the hotel is full you wouldn't get parked."

Couldn’t fault it, the inclusive access to the farm barn was amazing for the kids who fed the animals every morning. The house was so spacious looking out onto the farm, plenty of amenities and clean + just perfect. We wished we stayed longer, highly recommend!"
