Super
Pros:

Une nuit trois personnes. Chambres confortables. La disposition est labyrinthique mais donne du charme à l’hébergement. Personnel très accueillant et disponible. Très bon petit déjeuner. Le plus était la restauration. Produits locaux et prix très acceptables. Je recommande particulièrement le plateau de fromages locaux. Nous y retournerons avec plaisir.

Pros:

The staff were 5 stars

Cons:

Even though they knew that I was travelling with a pet no pet bed, or anything was available in the room. No proper fan and room was too hot. We couldn’t sleep because of the noises from the pub, since the room was facing the courtyard. Not a pleasant night’s sleep.

Fab dog friendly with great food!
Pros:

So dog friendly. There is a charge but what they provide for dogs is worth more than you actually pay. Sausage for breakfast, biscuits at the dinner table- such lovely touches.

Cons:

Nothing!
