“Nestled in a serene, wooded setting just a short distance from the city centre, this property captures a sense of tranquil escape. The blend of its historic Victorian architecture with more modern accommodations provides a charming base, and I found the staff consistently attentive and genuinely welcoming throughout my stay. Breakfast was particularly noteworthy, offering a generous and well-prepared selection that truly set the tone for the day.”
