"The rooms and decor were all simpathetically refurbished in Georgian style. The beds were extremely comfortable and clean.

The breakfast was great, various things to eat, they catered for my niece who is celiac, she was delighted to finally stay somewhere and be made to feel part of the company, not an added extra on a special diet! Thank you Mr & Mrs McHeilie"
