Quaint little boutique hotel with plenty of gathering space when traveling with others. The not so secret garden is an awesome place to eat, drink and socialize. The staff are so nice and helpful!

Friendly and accommodating staff, quirky and stylish hotel and bar, slightly off the main drag but just a short walk to shops and restaurants. Would happily recommend a stay at this hotel.

Lovely food
Overall very good. Excellent food but we arrived for our 7 pm dinner reservation to be told the kitchen was closed until 7.30. After a long and difficult journey to get to the hotel courtesy of Storm Bert this was very disappointing. Even at check in we were not given this information
