Fantastic boutique hotel

Amazing hotel with the best customer service ever! We were here for a wedding weekend and they helped us with early check ins and late check outs plus cutlery/plates for the bridal suite. Fantastic French restaurant downstairs. Just bring ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper due to nearby train tracks. Would stay here again

The bell

Hotel staff were amazing. One thing I did notice upon arrival and checkout was I had to call a number to get someone to come to reception not ideal. Hotel was great rooms very spacious bathroom fantastic except for the water leak in the shower. Rating is Hotel a little lower because of the train station across the road and trains going all night unfortunately it still has a level crossing so the bell from an approaching passenger or freight train continued well into the morning and unfortunately the bed was too soft for my liking so not much sleep.

The room was very noisy. It is just above a rail crossing where the Bells rung throughout the night. They know this, as they even provide earplugs beside the bed, but fail to mention anything in their website. Very poor as the room is quite expensive.
