- Small property with few rooms — With only 18 rooms, the property may feel intimate, but that could also mean limited availability and less on-site variety.
- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this property isn't suitable – pets are not permitted on site.
- No parking information — No parking details are provided, so guests arriving by car may need to find alternative arrangements.
