Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-in only between 13:00 and 19:00 — Arrivals outside this window may need to coordinate, which could be inconvenient for late flights or early trains.
  • No pets allowed — Travellers with animals cannot bring them to the property, so plan accordingly if you usually travel with a pet.
  • Limited public areas — As a bed & breakfast, the property focuses on rooms and breakfast; guests looking for extensive hotel facilities might find the offer modest.
  • Some variability in room sizes — While many rooms are described as spacious, a couple of reviews mention the double room was big but without specifics; a few guests noted the room was okay, not huge.
