4/10 Fair

Will not return - ever!

A poor experience. Good sized unit but with a very small bathroom in need of maintenance and upgrade - shower curtain arrangement. Bed was comfortable and sheets were clean but food crumbs on bench and hairs in the hand basin not a good look! Overall very tired!!

Great staff very helpful great food and rooms
Trevor, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved this quaint british-style pub and hotel. Its a bit old school but that definintely adds to the charm. The nearby sculture garden is also a fun stop worth the time, as it feels pretty unique to wander through the primordial forest looking at scultures planted around...
