New Year, New Look

We promised and so now we are delivering.  Updates to parts of the hotel have started since we closed our doors to guests on January 2 2018.  The refurbishment work is well underway in our dining room.  We very much hope you will appreciate the transformation when you next visit. With a little bit of quiet time on our hands a few bedroom are being refitted and configured.  More ofthis will follow as and when time allows during the year.

It is with great anticipation that we look forward to seeing the new environment we are creating and are happy to share the work progress with you here.
