Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently:
"Wedding Stay"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
We stayed here for our wedding at the Windmill so the location was perfect. The room was big but maybe a little sparse, could fit a couple chairs and tables to make better use of the space. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff was very helpful and we would stay again.
