Our stay was perfect. As soon as we stepped into this little gem we relaxed. The staff (particularly the lady on reception who welcomed us) were very friendly and helpful. It wasn’t over the top and in your face kind of service, but felt honest and professional. The atmosphere was calm and quiet. The food was excellent, we even made yogurt breakie at home. Plenty of quirky veggie/vegan dishes to choose from. The room was cosy, clean and very pretty. Loved all the pictures scattered around the walls, the board games and recipe card is a nice touch. Played back gammon and found lovely book on the history of swimsuits! The hotel is small so didn’t feel over crowded. It would be nice to see hotel team up with maybe a couple of local producers to add little extras - Wideye products would be lovey to see in the rooms for the shower/body products as they are locally made and, awesome and kind to the environment and Rye Chocolates would be a sweet addition to each room. All in all we had the most FAB stay.

We had a really lovely stay, very friendly staff, good food and a cosy atmosphere

A brilliant visit at a strange time for the world. We felt welcomed, looked after and safe. Glorious food and excellent service from all. Thank you!

Hi Elise We loved our stay! Thank you. Your hotel is very peaceful and happy place. The staff made it such a wonderful and relaxing stay. Anna, Elton and Lindsay are all very special and gifted. Their warmth and honesty came through. We also appreciated all the effort Monty went to for us. John on the bar was friendly and open. The one thing that could be improved is maybe better sound proof doors as you can hear everything (room 3) including a crying baby over night close by. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. We enjoyed both our dinners & the breakfast is, indeed, quite special and unique- which is quite hard these days. The beans coffee was top. All best Arad & Brian

We have just returned from the most amazing long weekend away at the Gallivant - and are already discussing when we can go back! After a really tough year we needed to get away, really switch off and spoil ourselves for our anniversary - the Gallivant was the perfect place to do this. Our room and the entire place was decorated beautifully, so trendy but tasteful. Attention to detail is evident at every turn, from the sleepy tea night time delivery to the arrival note wishing us a happy anniversary, and the environmentally-friendly water bottles. The bed and bath was luxurious. The food - from breakfasts, home-roasted salted almonds at the bar, to incredible dinners and a specially curated selection of wines and cocktails - was nothing short of exceptional. We loved our yoga class with India and wish we could have stayed longer to do more of the experiences. We both had massages at the spa with the brilliant Daisy, the tipping point into ultimate relaxation. ALL the staff were brilliant - attentive and knowledgable but relaxed and we loved this as often at hotels the staff can be stuck up and a bit too formal and stuffy. Naketa and Monty took really good care of us and made us feel so welcome. Looking to make this a yearly (or even bi-annual) visit.

My wife, I & Fin (our Jack Russell) had a wonderful short stay earlier this week. Everyone was so helpful and friendly, with nothing too much trouble. The atmosphere & ambience is just so welcoming and comfortable. The food was gorgeous also, we'll definitely visit again. Mark Barrington.
