A romantic family-run hotel in a superb half-timbered house (1793); staying here is a bit
like staying with your (affluent) country cousins. Rooms are set around a delightful garden
and are all different, although typically decorated with a combination of William Mor-
ris-style wallpaper and pastel paintwork combined with colourful quilts, rugs and fabrics.

building contrasts sharply with the 12 modern and crisply renovated apartments with their
well-equipped kitchenettes and small dining space.
