Great stay. The staff were helpful, and having access to laundry facilities to dry wet workwear at the end of the day made a real difference.
Will definitely stay here again.

For an area that gets so much rain a year, the carriages are ill equipped. The windows steamed up from the word go and we spent the entire trip wiping them off and hence saw little of the reason we took the trip, the views!
5/5 - Excellent

Wonderful! Terrific commentary with local fascinating history. Great value.
