a quiet escape

kind manager thoughtful decor excellent food ideal location
The staff was wonderfully kind, and jay, the manager, stood out with really good helpfulness. i appreciated the thoughtful decor in my room. the food was also excellent. I found it worth the visit. the location was ideal for exploring the area.
The bathroom floor was a bit wet by the sink. I had to ensure the cold water tap was tightly closed to prevent any leaks.

The indian menu provides a good meal. I tried the curries and found them cracking. a fridge offered water, milk, cereal, and orange juice. plenty of tea and coffee were also available.

rustic charm!

pleasant smell parking facilities
i totally loved the character of the hotel and that pleasant countryside smell. the parking was super convenient. i felt so relaxed and ready to enjoy my stay. plus, the location was perfect for a quick stopover!
i noticed some breakfast items from previous guests hadn't been cleared away from my room upon arrival, it wasn't a huge deal, but i had to request refills. this caused a slight delay to my morning.

leaking tap unavailable staff
I found a leaking tap in the bathroom. I had to turn it off REALLY tight to stop the leak. There was no bottled water provided in the room. I also saw a spider in the bathroom. Staff were not available except in the bar. This made it hard to ask questions.
