It was cosy and a comfortable warmth thanks to the central radiator heating throughout. I was definitely not too hot in my room. Very clean & all the facilities that I needed - access to a large freezer & a bath was a welcome added bonus also. Lovely grounds. Very friendly, helpful & welcoming service from the manager Shontal. ##### Christina Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Halina Mar 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything was as described ##### Halina Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Janie Mar 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness The convenience ##### Janie Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Warwick Mar 14, 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Never slept in a nurses home before full of character and after 7 hours of biking by from Murchison it was a surprise to find a bath for a long soak ##### Warwick Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angela Feb 27, 2024 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Stayed a number of times and will be back ##### Angela Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Elizabeth Feb 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was quirky because of the purpose it was built for but had all the facilities we expected, although it would have been nice to have single-sex bathrooms (lots of hot water though). Kitchen had everything we needed, room was comfortable and grounds were pretty. Very convenient for the town centre. Staff were very friendly and helpful especially the groundsman who sorted out a mix-up with our key. ##### Elizabeth Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Shane Dec 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness Wasn’t happy as ordered a room for two adults but only got a single bed ##### Shane Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Martin Dec 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A great blend of history and convenience.

Sarah was fantastic & was friendly & helpful. Chontelle (Manager?) on the other hand, wasn't. She stated that I should be more resilient travelling on my own & I shouldn't be fazed by the lack of women not staying there. And that most of the men worked for a good company & were respectful. Then said I was lucky she replied. I didnt feel lucky. NEWSFLASH some of the most abhorrent rapists & murders have been charming & respectful! Im not saying they were but the point is being respectful doesnt deter someone coming into your room at night or stealing your stuff. Locked doors & windows do. This appalling comment was made because I asked for a secure room for myself & my property & the room wasn't. I only discovered this when I was about to go to bed around 9pm. An appalling thing for a woman to say to another woman. Sarah showed more concern for my wellbeing than Chontelle did. I left in the middle of the night because if the Manager says this, it indicates a lack of concern for her women patrons & that made me feel unsafe. I asked for my money back, but again, the customer service was lacking. Expedia said because the booking was completed, it was out of their hands. It wasnt completed by me, I left during the early hours. NEVER AGAIN. ##### Ena Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jamie Jun 6, 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Rooms were very cold, no heating.
