Good location, clean convient, but very basic.
Pros:

The rooms were located underneath a lovely old building , they were small & modern .

Cons:

Unfortunately I do not like to sleep up against a wall and one of us has to do this as there was no other option. There was no TV which was not a big deal but if you had been staying for a longer period you may of appreciated one . The light outside was on all night and kept me awake . Waste of electricity & very annoying.

Excellent place to stay with a lot of history and amazing gardens.
Pros:

Super property with incredible gardens. The cafe was quite limited for breakfast options but it’s simple enough to find places close by for breakfast/ brunch. The location is super.

Cons:

Cafe and bed was a standard double bed, would have preferred a larger one for a couple.
