Beautiful apartment, with lovely view

We loved our stay in The Lily Pad, it was spotlessly clean, lovely comfortable bed and fluffy towels. The decking and outdoor furniture and view of the river was really enjoyed. Our hosts Richard and Vicky were very welcoming and friendly, and there are lots of places to visit nearby.

Real Little Gem

The Lily Pad is absolutely delightful - a wonderfully relaxing spot right on the riverbank and with all amenities close at hand. I had a lovely time busy doing nothing and didn't feel guilty once. The weather was an added bonus. Very comfortable and well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Would definitely visit again and highly recommend.

The accommodation is superb. The finishes and choice of decor is excellent. Everything is to an extremely high standard and makes it a really comfortable enjoyable stay. We ate at The Eaterie just behind the Lilypad which served the best breakfasts and did burger nights on Thursday and Friday, not to be missed. The location is stunning. Canot ask for more.
