Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Evening arrival only — Check-in is strictly between 15:00 and 20:00. If your flight or train lands later, you may need to adjust plans or risk missing the window.
  • Early check-out — Check-out is between 08:00 and 10:00, which is earlier than many hotels and might feel rushed on a leisurely morning.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this property isn't suitable — the policy clearly states no pets.
