Great location, loved the chapel conversion.Spacious and light, with good lighting throughout for evening/night time ambience. Everyone enjoyed the pool table. Dining table was large enough to accommodate us all dining together, which was important to us. Dinner plates did not fit in the dishwasher and the sink drainage rack did not accommodate them either.Families with children may welcome at least one room with twin beds.
