Pros:

Lovely house grounds amazing.
Loved our room and small balcony.
Sitting out in the peaceful garden.

Cons:

Pity no evening meal served we would have preferred to stay at the hotel for the one night we were there.
Im afraid we are not dog lovers so thr three dogs was a bit over the top for us but otherwise loved the house.

Wunderschönes Hotel in ruhiger Lage, perfekte Unterkunft mit Hund – absolut empfehlenswert!
Pros:

Ein wunderschönes Hotel in herrlich ruhiger Lage. Wir hatten einen rundum gelungenen Aufenthalt mit unserem Hund. Statt im Haupthaus waren wir in einer der hinter dem Gebäude gelegenen Lodges untergebracht – für uns als Hundebesitzer war das besonders praktisch.

Die Unterkunft war geschmackvoll eingerichtet, sehr sauber und bestens ausgestattet. Auch das Haupthaus hat uns mit seiner liebevollen Einrichtung begeistert. Dort haben wir jeden Morgen ein köstliches Frühstück in einer sehr angenehmen Atmosphäre genossen.

Das gesamte Personal war ausgesprochen freundlich und aufmerksam. Am Abend konnten wir den Tag entspannt im Garten ausklingen lassen und dabei einen leckeren Drink von der Bar genießen.

Die Lage ist ebenfalls ideal, da der Wilton Lodge Park ganz in der Nähe liegt und sich hervorragend für Spaziergänge eignet.

Wir waren rundum zufrieden und können das Balcary House Hotel uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen. Negatives gibt es aus unserer Sicht überhaupt nichts zu sagen.

Good location for town, quiet hotel
Pros:

Comfortable bed, nice garden view. Electric shower was good (but terrifyingly loud!). Very friendly breakfast team, provided gluten-free bread options. Free parking for 2 motorcycles, Easy walk into the town, would recommend the Santa Marina restaurant (especially for coeliacs).

Cons:

Restaurant onsite but we were not able to use it as a party of 8 were already booked in and we were informed there would 'not be much left'! Limited continental breakfast options (8 am start).
Hardly any electrical sockets in the room and they were mostly in use for appliances. Could do with an update/modernisation.
