Pros:

This was the most beautiful hotel with the most beautiful staff and guests. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. Emily one of the managers exceeded all expectations and really put herself out to make our stay here one to remember forever. Thank you Emily. When we get the opportunity to return we will, but for the mean time all we can do is thank you for the most magical holiday from mum I 🥰

Cons:

Fabulous very comfortable stay at The Osborne Hotel
Pros:

Absolutely fabulous stay at The Osborne Hotel. Comfy beds (and I’m hard to please) amazing outside terrace bar, pool and garden all very beautifully maintained. Staff are so lovely and helpful, nothing is a problem. 10 min walk into town up and down lols but doable if you are mobile. Breakfast is great and so is the menu for dinner/lunch. They provide a good floor fan as there’s no aircon and this helped as windows don’t open up very far. Clean, tidy and comfortable, we will return.

Cons:

Nothing really
