Exceptionally welcoming staff and comfortable rooms made this stay a great option
Pros:

This is a quick drive from the airport, perfect to get a night’s rest after a late arrival. We loved walking the grounds before breakfast. The staff are exceptional.

Cons:

The gym was closed for renovations but that is a temporary inconvenience.
