Grote kamer, auto makkelijk parkeren op groot parkeerterrein. Lekker ontbijt.

Gelegen aan een drukke weg, om te wandelen een lastige omgeving.

"Excellent stay, close to Blenheim"

9.0

Great location. We were going to Blenheim, which is less than 2 miles away. Very friendly staff. We ate there in the evening. The fryer had broken but we still had excellent food. The butter chicken was delicious. Spacious room, fairly comfortable, and with 2 armchairs, which is very unusual

Bed could have been slightly more comfortable but that's being picky. The rooms are in a separate block to the bar and restaurant, which meant it was quiet. However there is no covered walkway to link through, which would be a good addition. One of the bedside lamps didn't have a plug close by
