Very nice and very special to stay at such on old guesthouse. Lots of people visiting this day in May 2026 with +30 degrees but the staff managed to serve all the guests in a good way. We had a very nice dinner, good sleep and excellent breakfast the next day. The Masons Arm experience was thumps up and we recommend.
