This modest hotel has darling rooms and superb food. You have to carry your luggage up the stairs, the only negative. We were wowed by the food.

Everything you need under one roof on scenic route

Lovely place in a great location - a great find. Service was professional and efficient. Room and bed perfectly comfy and clean. Loved the Voya bath products in the bathroom and nice to have bath/shower choice. Also, restaurant on site has lovely, with nice varied menu. Would be nice to include breakfast with stay as standard and give preference to staying guests for reservations in the restaurant or discount on one night.

Great find

A lovely place to stay, with a friendly warm welcome, amazing location, and a very comfortable and tastefully decorated interior. We had dinner and breakfast, and it was delicious, well-presented and good value. Would definitely recommend The Driftwood.
