Loved our overnight stay - room 4 was small but suited for one night. Could do with a box of tissues in the room though. Breakfast was lovely, staff friendly and very pleasant atmosphere.

Quiet & Clean

The room was spacious and well maintained. The area was quiet and made for a good nights sleep. Breakfast was included, basic but enough to get you ready for the day.

Beautiful small inn.

Lovely small hotel/inn. Information was communicated to us promptly about check in process and parking as there is not a front desk. Our room was very nice although a bit small but fine for a night or two. The common areas are lovely and the breakfast was wonderful. We would definitely stay again. The location is also very good.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The property is a converted historic house and has been beautifully renovated into a boutique b&b in a great location. Didn't see a soul, except at breakfast (including check in). Breakfast was lovely, and the Conservatory is a wonderful space. Room was comfortable, but the only window was in the bathroom area (with a frosted glass door to let light into to room). Not a problem as we spent little time there other than sleeping!!

Perfect hidden gem

The hotel is located centrally to the cbd. Rooms are comfortable with own ensuite, tea and coffee. There is also a large conservatory / common area where you can relax. The breakfast provided is next level. The staff (particularly Zoe) were super helpful. If i couldve stayed longer i would.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Despite looking, from the outside, like a redecorated 'Fawlty Towers', this is a real 'find'. Everything was spotlessly clean, immaculately tidy and you could feel any stresses just drift away. The bed was so comfortable that I didn't want to get out of it this morning. The breakfast offering was simple, but perfect. I couldn't fault the Florance and would happily recommend it to anyone.
