Quirky and individual atmosphere, lovely bar and a 'library' specifically for residents.
Breakfast service was a little chaotic even at quiet times. The food was very nice.. I had cereal each day, they only had sugar cubes, I asked for a sugar sachet each day when I ordered and each day I had to re-ask 3 times. Also hot food for the two of us not delivered at the same time, my husband was half way through his before I got mine and I had to re-ask where it was.
