“This is a house with character, set within its own grounds and filled with eclectic treasures that make the reception rooms particularly engaging. While the nearby road can be busy, the comfortable, well-appointed rooms, including those with excellent bathrooms, offer a welcome respite, and the generous breakfast selection is a definite highlight. It's a place that feels genuinely welcoming, particularly for canine companions, and provides a rather different, rather pleasant stay.”
