Краткий обзор: It’s a 1925 manor with 1925 soundproofing, so bring earplugs if you want to sleep past the first creaky floorboard.
Подтверждено @eatdrinkandbekerry: I honestly forgot I was in Australia staying here. The vibe is pure English manor, from the ivy walls to the grand fireplace. My favorite part was discovering the little lolly shop tucked away inside—such a cute touch for a romantic weekend.

Чистота и уход
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though recent reviews mention occasional missed dust or towels not changed.
- Bathroom hygiene: Mostly sparkling, but older grout lines in original bathrooms can look tired; some reports of 'tired' fixtures.
- Maintenance: The building is old (1925), so expect peeling paint on window frames and the occasional broken light fixture.
- Linens & towels: Crisp white linens, though some guests wish the towels were fluffier.
- Odors & scents: Common areas smell of woodsmoke and polish; some rooms can have a faint musty 'old house' smell.
