The hotel is delightful. The location is peaceful, right on the edge of where things start to hustle and bustle but separated enough to not feel the pressure of the crowds. The courtyards are immaculate and have lovely relaxation areas with games and fire pits. There is a recreational room with more games. It felt like a cozy cabin. So family friendly and clearly doggy friendly as well! Will 100% stay there again. The only thing I would say is missing is a hot tub for soaking the old bones after a day of walking the village. Oh! And the TV in room was GINORMOUS! Since I had a slight head cold, I actually used it one night and it was an unexpected delight

Staff were great. Room was clean, but the internet, and tv never worked properly all weekend, and there was constant issue with hot water when you showered. Also, staff is only there from 9 to 6.
