The recently renovated rooms available to you are listed above and are ready to use (all room photos provided are available for use). There are two ensuite bathrooms available (one upstairs and one downstairs) but please be aware that the main bathroom is not ready for use and has been locked. Please note the bath/shower upstairs hasn’t been replaced and has some obvious marks and discoloration on the bath floor that are unable to be removed. The bath has been thoroughly cleaned before and after each guest stay. There will be no construction going on at any time during (or before and after your stay), there are also no paint fumes etc as this part of the renovation was done months ago.
