Heather Jul 17, 2026 03:32:37 AM

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely hotel and would happily recommend. Such a beautiful place with an excellent bar and brasserie just across the way for breakfast, meals and drinks also recommended. Pretty courtyard areas to enjoy some time out. Everywhere well maintained and clean. Professional, friendly and very welcoming staff. Our stylish room in the old barn, with a very spacious ensuite, had absolutely everything we could possibly need and a comfortable big bed. Air con bliss too in this very hot weather. Very useful small fridge in room with drinks/snacks available to purchase. Usual tea and coffee facility but fresh milk available from reception was a real bonus. We are so pleased that we chose this hotel for our stay.
