The accommodation comprises 12 newly refurbished rooms and a deluxe family suite with two bedrooms, a kitchenette/living room, and a shared bathroom – everything you need for a relaxing home away from home. Dog-friendly rooms are available, so lovable canine companions needn’t miss out on an adventure.
