Such a lovely stay, beautiful location by the river and the Coppa Club on site is great. Great walks from the hotel and local pubs too. We knew before we went but there’s no air conditioning in the rooms so be aware if it’s hot when you go!

Great location and nice staff. Only issue: the room was far too hot despite a fan and the windows could not be open far enough!
