Nice stopover before cruise

Ideal location for pre-cruise stopover. Easy access to Winchester plus food menu was imaginative. Breakfast included was plentiful and freshly prepared. Friendly staff and the room was a high standard.

It was good, room a little small but it had everything you wanted in it. Could have done with another chair so that we could both sit but no room for one

John, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Too hot

We have stayed here before. The prices seem to have gone up. we did not feel we could justify breakfast as well. It was good last time though. Supper was pleasant although the portions seemed smaller than last time. However our main gripe was the temperature in the room. It was so hot that we got very little sleep. They did provide a dyson fan but that only recirculates the hot air. If summers continue to get hotter, air conditioning will be imperative here.

A very unusual property but room was a bit shabby
GEOFFREY, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Easy check in and the hostess was friendly and helpful. The room had pretty much anything you could wish for in it. Very well equipped room, lovely linen and a super comfy bed with different firmness of pillows. Nespresso machine, mini fridge, DAB radio, large TV, Dyson fan, Iron, Hairdrier, all great! Checkout was easy the next day. Just a shame we couldn’t have stayed for longer and made better use of everything. Many thanks!

Comfortable, welcoming and a little different.

A really nice place to stay, proving that quirky doesn’t have to be weird. Comfortable bed, welcoming team, great food (perfect fish pie) served with a smile by Jess 😊
