    great food

    Recommend it for couples looking for a getaway

    The staff were amazing they even packed us some snacks for our bike trip which was a nice touch and the food we had was top notch just like that roast lamb I had for dinner so tender and flavorful

    It wasn't exactly cheap but honestly worth every penny

The staff was incredibly welcoming, and the breakfast was fantastic, especially the breakfast bagels that were perfect for fueling our adventures.

    The double room was really comfy and spacious. We had a nice view of the river. Bed linen felt fresh, and the room was immaculate. It added to our chill vibes after exploring. Just wish the noise from outside wasn’t so noticeable at night.
