Great deal from Grabone. Reception very friendly and super helpful. Rooms are a bit dated, but very comfortable and clean. Eating places just down the road in Thames and close to town yet far enough out to feel remote. Traffic noise to be expected due to proximity to main road, but not overly obtrusive. Great experience and I would definitely look at going back unless the prices increased dramatically.

Saubere gepflegte Zimmer konfortable Ausstatung und sehr schöne gestaltete Umgebung. Freundliche und hilfsbereite Unterstützung von Lynda. Gute Tips für Ausflüge usw. Wir fühlten uns wie im Paradies. Der Sonnenuntergang war immer wieder ❤️ erwärmend.
