Comfort and Cleanliness standout

The breakfast was so good with fresh, local ingredients. Toiletries were luxury brand and replenished daily. Flapjacks in the room were a tasty touch, recipe is requested. Linens are crisp on the comfortable bed, I slept well each night.
The wine list presentation felt a bit delayed one evening.
