BlackBook "Hosts John and Renate run the friendliest hotel in town (more of a B&B really): a 4-story 1913 Edwardian charmer that’s bedecked with antiques, wicker and old photographs."
Oyster Budget
"The cozy, family-owned hotel is best suited to adult travelers, couples, and families with older children." Full review
Time Out "This 1913 Edwardian hotel is a real charmer; a little creaky in places, certainly, but generally delightful." Full review
