    It's a relaxed welcoming - "homelike" feel... rare to find such genuine care for the guests and immaculately managed. The communal breakfast table is a stroke of genius.. giving guests a chance to connect and exchange stories about their travel and adventures.

    Squeaky floorboards in our upstairs room. (library 1) We were worried about the people below us although our room was above their courtyard, not actual room.

    Quiet peaceful small boutique. Every room has its own sheltered shady private courtyard/balcony with comfy couches. Beautiful bathroom. Refreshing clean pool. Delicious breakfast - different every day. Super friendly staff

    Nothing to mention.

    Charming old house converted into a lovely boutique hotel. It's set in a lush garden. My room was a Garden Suite, which was very spacious, clean and well furnished. The room contained a fridge, tv, safe and tea and coffee making facilities. The hotel also has a pool. The personnel were friendly and very helpful, including providing detailed information of the town's attractions, restaurants etc Breakfast is served in a dining room containing a communal dining table, allowing guests to mix if they so wish. Individual tables are also available. A cooked breakfast is served. A lovely, homely place for a quiet, relaxed stay. Highly recommended.

    Loved staying at McAlpine House.

    The outside lights were welcome when you returned in the night but they impacted on the room I stayed in making it quite bright at night. Perhaps you can look at sensor lights as an alternative? This was my only issue and on the whole a very minor issue

    I loved staying at McAlpine House. Nice quiet area, beautiful gardens and wonderful staff. I could not make breakfast for most of my stay as I had early morning tours booked. Staff made sure breakfast was left in my fridge, my room was always tidied, bed made and fan on when I returned after a long day and this was always very much appreciated.
