Wonderful hotel with a delightful owner and manager. Warm and cozy bar-restaurant with great full-course meals, a nice deck to soak in the sun, and walkable (20 min) to the terrace and forest reserve. Beautiful location in autumn.

Homey British hotel.
Chris is a very friendly and funny guy. Great atmosphere and giving a great welcome feeling. Full of stories and jokes!
Good homey British food - dinner and breakfast. His home smoked salmon got full marks!
Huge room, very clean and quiet.
Highly recommended for Japanese and gaijin travellers.
