Charming and relaxing!
5.0/ 5
The double room was exquisite – spacious, neat and cosy! The staff was super friendly and kind. We particularly enjoyed the large area outside. Our dog loved running around while we took relaxing walks. And the food at the Mulberry Hill Bistro (located on-site) was just amazing. Highly recommended!
