We absolutely loved our visit to Cook Street! The space is truly beautiful and very well fitted out to a high standard while being mindful of the original features. The only feedback we would give is a doormat at the front door to catch the worst of the rain. Would definately book again. ❤

Such a nice place to stay with so much character, found a few spiders and cobwebs but the place is years old so nothing we didn’t expect! The decor and the actual room is stunning and the scone and milk etc was such a nice touch, definitely stay again if we had the chance
