Our party of 4 had spacious rooms. They were exceptionally clean. And there was a wide variety and hearty enough options for the continental breakfast to tide us over until lunchtime. Close to the bus stops. Would definitely stay there again & highly recommend.

Établissement à recommander

Bonjour, j’ai passé un agréable séjour au sein de Dorstan house. La chambre correspondait à la description en ligne, était propre ainsi que la salle de bain. Possibilité de choisir la veille son petit déjeuner : boisson, sucré, salé… Celui-ci a été servi par Richard qui sait se montrer à la fois discret, à l’écoute et souriant. L’établissement est un peu excentré mais rien d’insurmontable pour qui aime marcher comme moi et pour ceux qui apprécient moins l’arrêt de bus est très proche (3 minutes).
