Reviews and Ratings
I woke up to a lovely view of the meadow at the rear of the hotel and enjoyed the state-of-the-art lighting, candle table settings, and full dance floor in the spacious room. It was a bit too warm at night, but overall excellent, especially being on the ground floor.
The hotel offers very spacious and clean rooms, but the beds are quite hard for my liking. The entrance area can get noisy with cars parked late. The service is exceptionally friendly and attentive, even catering to special dietary needs. The location is beautiful, ideal for peaceful walks. The dining experience comes with generous portions, but the breakfast was slightly overwhelming. Overall, a lovely stay with a few minor inconveniences.
The hotel was spacious and bright, with a lovely outlook and pleasant table and chairs by the window, offering a great size and very clean rooms. The service was very friendly and helpful, making our 24hr stay pleasant. The location was good, especially for exploring the new forest and the coast, and the dining experience was very good, with more than enough to satisfy our hunger.
