A nice property in a nice location. However, we had our honeymoon there and did not receive anything which is unusual as we stayed at other places and always got something.

A well-earned treat after a day of sightseeing.

My daughter and I had a wonderful stay, totally relaxing and serene. It was convenient walking over to the wine tasting and popping into the Cheesery and deli shop. The location was perfect for exploring the region and even better for returning to unwind in the evening. We enjoyed cozying up by the fire chatting and relaxing in our spacious room.

There wasn't facilities to reheat food and the kettle was really small in terms of usage. The TV was really old and couldn't be used to access Netflix or any subscription channels. There was a in house cinema which could be booked at first come first serve basis and the complementary wine tasting was average at best
