Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Small property with limited rooms — With only 8 rooms, the guest house is intimate but may book out quickly or feel limited for larger groups.
  • No pets allowed — Travellers with pets will need to look elsewhere, as the property explicitly disallows pets.
  • Service rating lower than staff rating — While staff receive high marks (8.7), the overall service category is rated lower (8.0), suggesting occasional inconsistencies beyond the team.
