Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Dining options are a step below — While guests enjoy the on-site restaurant, the dining rating is the lowest category at 7, suggesting it may not be the highlight of the stay.
  • Limited check-in hours — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 19:00, which may be inconvenient if you arrive later in the evening. Check-out is from 08:00 to 10:00.
  • No pets allowed — The guesthouse does not permit pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements if you travel with an animal.
  • Small scale may limit availability — With only 8 rooms, the guesthouse can book out quickly, and availability may be limited during peak times.
