Excellent Motorcycle Touring Base

secure parking helmet hanger
The hotel offers individual garages for motorcycles and secure CCTV-covered parking. I found an air compressor, pressure washer, and cleaning kit available. Rooms have helmet hangers and deep shelving spaces. The bar had a good selection, including their own tasty beer.
My room was located downstairs. Natural light was limited because the window was partially covered. I noticed soundproofing was not adequate. I could hear the TV in the adjacent room.
Facilities
10/10
The hotel features a well-equipped map room, useful for planning local walks. There is a drying room to dry wet clothes, very convenient after riding in the rain. Breakfast service occurs promptly within a large, beautiful room.
