The hotel has lovely and friendly service with great facilities but needs improved ventilation for hotter days. The location is full of character with a nice ambiance, and the dining experience offers some unique touches. However, it could benefit from some improvements in terms of ventilation for comfort. The price is reasonable given the services offered.

The hotel is conveniently located just off the Ridgeway long-distance footpath, by Eastbrook Organic Farm. The rooms offer a good selection of tea and coffee but could use improved ventilation in case of another heatwave. The service was top-notch with lovely and friendly staff going out of their way to give excellent service. The dining experience included self-made apple juice but lacked bowls or cutlery. Overall, the facilities were great with additional amenities available.
