–
Worth weighing
5 to weigh- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so travellers with animals will need to make other arrangements.
- Limited number of rooms — With only 18 rooms, availability may be limited, especially during peak times, and the hotel lacks extensive on-site facilities.
- Check-in only from 15:00 — Guests arriving before 3 PM will need to wait or store luggage, as check-in does not begin until 15:00.
- General rating below other categories — The 'General' rating of 7.9 is the lowest among the categories, suggesting some guests may find aspects of the overall experience less consistent.
- Price point may feel high — With rates from £292 per night, the hotel sits at a premium price point for its class, though guest ratings for value are still decent.
