Stayed for only one night of the three we booked during our honeymoon. Was given one of the "cottages" in the courtyard, i.e a pokey en-suite room with a strong smell of damp. Food was decent and the bar looked well used by locals, Which is good or bad depending how you look at it. Decor in the main hotel... more

Just read a negative review on this hotel and can't stress how much I disagree. The hotel is lovely and the staff are very friendly and made our stay an absolute pleasure. The room was charming and very good value. Pay no attention to the other reviewers comments about the room being dated, some people have no taste! Great place... more
