    This place felt like home from the moment we arrived. The hosts made us feel comfortable immediately. Drinks by the fire were amazing. Breakfast options were delicious. The location is great, close to shops and the harbor. Couldn't have asked for better hosts for our anniversary.

    Clean and charming rooms with wooden windows that let in plenty of natural light. Also, the rooms have comfortable amenities. The staff, including the host, are awesome. The hotel is located in a peaceful area relatively close to the local museum. 🌿

    Really enjoyed the friendly service and interaction with the hosts. They were down to earth and made us feel at home. the range of food on offer for breakfast was excellent and everything was well presented. the location of the hotel was perfect - on a quiet road yet close to all the good spots in town.

    The room we stayed in was quite small with low ceilings. It was charming but may not be suitable for taller guests.
