The hotel is beautifully designed and situated in a pleasant area close to the town center and train station. The restaurant and bar offer great food, and it's just a short walk into town. The rooms are decent sized, beautifully decorated, and come with a selection of whisky. The breakfast is great, and the facilities are really good.

The unit was great-sized and well furnished, with a huge double bed and a coffee machine. There was a huge variety of brilliant food available during my stay. The location by the river was lovely, and it was only a 15-minute walk from an extensive medieval abbey.
