Well designed and maintained property, combining old and new, with relaxed vibe. It is in an atmospheric location in riverside marshes. The food and staff were great. Very dog friendly.

My best friend and I stayed for one night for her 60th birthday. We arrived around 3.15pm and had a lovely walk around the local area followed by drinks before a delicious meal in the restaurant. The staff were excellent and really made our stay. Nothing was too much trouble and were so welcoming and positive with their attitude and energy. Thank you!
