    The room has everything you need if you are wanting to eat out or grab takeaway. It was warm on arrival, easy self check-in, clean and comfortable. There were nice little touches like the milk for tea and coffee, the biscuits, toaster, pod coffee, complimentary towels for the hot pools, makeup wipes and dark makeup flannel. The room is quiet and we didn't hear the other guests at all. The bed was comfortable and the location is brilliant! 3 minute walk to town. We would definitely book here again!

    Although the bathroom was nice, it was a bit difficult when showering not to get water everywhere. Apart from that it was AMAZING

    No so much about not liking the accommodation just points to consider. The room is very small for a winter visit. We had two large suitcases due to bringing bulkier clothes and no room to move. There is not seating for relaxing outside of 2 kitchen chairs which are under the TV. More lighting would be lovely. I have eye issues and the lighting was dim, but it was raining which I am sure did not help.

    The location is perfect. Walkable to everywhere in town. It was part of an old house. The room was very tastefully decorated. The bed was comfy, the linen was lovely. The bathroom was modern. They supplied towels to take to the hot pools, which was a bonus.

    There’s not really anything I can think of that could be better.

    The location is great and it just has a really cosy feel to it…this is the 3rd or 4th time I have stayed here and its consistently great each time.

    Excellent location, just a short walk to the centre of Hamner Springs. Very comfy bed and Excellent pillows, a bonus for me as most places we stay do not have great pillows.

    In the middle of the town, nice garden. It was like a room with own private bathroom in a Victorian house , with private entrance. In the room coffee machine, kettle and toaster. Really nice and warm.

    The light outside our room couldn't be turned off and was very bright at night, the blinds helped but the room was still quite light.

    Really close to everything, meaning you can leave the car behind and walk everywhere. Quiet location, bed was comfortable and the room had everything we needed.

    Privacy, peaceful, quality accommodation, Stunning older English looking gardens.

    The whole property is surrounded by beautiful old style gardens. The house and huts are older but built beautifully. Our unit was perfect, modern , everything you need including lovely soft white bathroom robes. The outdoor seating and surroundings sounds of native birds is so pleasing to hear. Thank you very much for a lovely 2 day stay. You should be very proud of your investment Emma and Tony.
