Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Relatively high price point — With rates from £330 per night, this may be above budget for some travellers, though guests often feel it is justified by the location.
  • Limited on-site services — There is no on-site restaurant, bar, or parking mentioned, so guests must plan for meals and transport independently.
