The owner who was very unpleasant and bossy underneath his politeness created a feeling of discomfort. The breakfast was delicious and grounds beautiful but his attitude unfortunately made us uncomfortable enough to not recommend this place.
hideaway is an amazing oasis away from home. We had two stays there recently and each one lived up to our expectations. Stephen & Jackie are fantastic hosts and make you feel very welcome. The rooms are five star not to mention the breakfast which is excellent. would highly recommend the Hideaway to anyone visiting the area.
This b & b is not a b&b in the true sense coz the rooms are in a seperate building & are huge!
Each is more beautiful than the next & decorated to 5 star+ std!!
Hosts are terrific soo helpful.
Gardens are huge & beautiful with 150 varieties of roses!
Breakfast is really good & outdoors most of the time
Fabulous Queen Elizabeth Suite furnished to the highest quality in every way. Excellent bathroom as well, wet room style, with high quality accessories. Nice touch with complimentary port and wine and fresh milk for tea and coffee. Exceptional continental breakfast, with options for fully cooked if you wish, served on the verandah by the pool
Very comfortable with top quality bedding and breakfast catering for our daughters allergies. extremely friendly and helpful hosts very knowledgeable about the area. Wonderful spa products for our use in the bathroom and a beautiful natural pool and garden. A quiet street but central, surrounded by history.
