The Tesla destination charger made the overnight stay even more convenient. Our room was spacious, clean and comfy with everything we needed, and included breakfast was good. There's an excellent Thai restaurant, Cinnamon, right next door in an old stables.
We had a creaky floorboard... not much else to dislike. Folks might like to know there's no lift to the upper floor if they're mobility impaired or travelling with heavy luggage.

This is a big step up from most accommodations. We loved the heritage building, the comfortable room and bed, the large well placed television and the excellent breakfast and the staff to top it off. This was our second stay there and we'll visit again.
We loved everything.

Position and closeness to town
The hotel while in the boutique style is very dated and could use a revamp. Poor heating in foyer. Bar closed at 7pm not good for the traveller arriving late -ish. While the room was comfortable the aircon set on 20 pumped out hot air most of the night and made for an uncomfortable night. Had an upstairs room with a view as advertised, the road outer the window is the same as very other road . Hotel overrated and not worth the money.
