    freshly cooked breakfast
    friendly staff
    worn building
    minor imperfections

    The charm of Bowlish House shines through, with its comfortable room and friendly staff making my visit enjoyable. A delightful breakfast set the tone for the day, though the old building does show signs of wear. Despite some minor imperfections, the overall experience was lovely and welcoming.

    warm welcome

    Perfect for couples seeking charm

    The continental breakfast was self-service, with a wide choice. The bedroom was spacious, light, and the bed was very comfortable.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap but still acceptable.

    historic building
    rude owner
    lack maintenance

    Vibrant historic atmosphere, Quaint garden views, Artistic collection

    Unpleasant interactions with the owner could be improved!!! A serious investment in maintenance is needed !!! Creaky floorboards are distracting during nighttime!!! Wi-Fi connection is frustratingly inconsistent!!!

    charming estate
    warm atmosphere
    creaky floorboards

    What a charming old estate! The stunning architecture and warm atmosphere really made us feel at home.

    The creaky floorboards added character, but I felt like I was living in a haunted house. Perhaps they could use some ghostbusters?

    warm welcome
    amazing local eats
    awesome social vibe
    worn stairs

    Had a fab time with my friends staying here! We visited the lovely towns nearby, enjoyed some amazing local eats, and appreciated the warm welcome from Mary Anne with drinks upon arrival. The place had an awesome social vibe, making our stay super enjoyable and memorable.

    One thing to note, though, is that the stairs leading up to our room felt a bit worn and could use some sprucing up to enhance the overall experience.

It was a relaxing experience, especially enjoying the beautiful garden view during meals. the stairs leading to the room felt a bit worn and could use some improvement.

    needs updates

    friendly hosts
    quirky ambiance
    nearby road noise
    limited dining options
    occasional quirks

    The warm welcome from Patrick and Theresa set a comfortable tone for our stay, complemented by the delicious self-service breakfast options. The character of the ancient property and its quirky rooms made for a unique ambiance, while ample secure parking was a plus. Although we found the location convenient for exploring, the nearby road was occasionally audible, slightly detracting from the tranquility.

    Great stay in a charming place!

    We spent 3 nights and loved it! Our room was spacious and decorated with some cool art. The shower was great, and breakfast was a treat since it was self-service with loads of options. Only thing was the nearby road could've been noisy, but honestly, it wasn’t a big deal at all.

    stunning decor but minor noise issue

    The vintage decor in our deluxe king room created a charming atmosphere that we absolutely loved. The owners were attentive, ensuring we felt at home during our two-night stay.

    There's some occasional noise from the surrounding area that might disturb light sleepers.
