“The position overlooking the canal locks is a real draw, offering a front-row seat to the comings and goings of boats, which I found rather hypnotic. Rooms felt fresh and modern, with some featuring lovely touches like freestanding baths and balconies, all while keeping essentials like fridges and tea facilities readily available. It strikes me as a truly convenient base, particularly for those arriving by bike, with a welcoming atmosphere extended to furry companions too.”
