A balanced experience

varied teas fresh milk relaxing areas hot bedroom dirty terrace limited menu

The room featured a wide selection of teas and coffees. Fresh milk was a nice addition. The public areas were stylish and relaxing. Jo at reception was very great.

The bedroom was too hot. I could not fully open the window because of peacocks. The terrace needed cleaning daily due to peacock droppings. The menu included many burgers, disappointing.
