“Never again.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 June 2013 NEW

I stayed at Rowland House for 2 nights, a while ago. It was absolutely horrendous. We felt over-welcomed as Beryl was acting a motherly role, rather than a hostess role. She spoke in a patronising tone, as if we were teenagers. The house was too compact and cluttered with unnecessary ornaments, such as Christmas decorations in the dining room when... More

“Lovely Stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 June 2013 NEW

Stayed on two separate nights on our roadtrip recently. We were met firstly by Beryls welcoming daughter and shown to our clean and comfortable room. Beds are extremely comfy and the Gueshouse is very well run by a wonderful host just made for the job. We had a very nice breakfast and got great tips from Beryl on where to... More

“Weekend races visit”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 June 2013

Stayed for 1 saturday night. Firslty, Rowalnd House doesn't massively inflate their room rates because of the race meeting - like most other hotels I looked at do! Beryl is a very welcoming hostess, making sure we could park, and allowing us to arrive early, so allowing us to change before going to the races. Located next to the main... More

“Very thoughtful touches”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 May 2013

Whilst only staying one night for the Half Marathon, from the outset Mrs Beryl Rowland was very welcoming and thoughtful, making sure we had a good parking space as we arrived, fitting in with the rather early breakfast we needed so my husband ate on time for the run, and being absolutely fine about us returning afterwards so he could...

“What a nice welcome”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 May 2013

Beryl welcomed us perfectly in her nice house, only a few hundred meters from the historic downtown. Easy to find with a convenient private car park. The last 5 miles were under a strong rain so we were badly wet. No problem Beryl took our motorbikers jackets to put them in the drying room, so kind of her. She had... More

“Better Than Ever!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 April 2013

If Beryl has a room available, I know I will stay with her and not somewhere else. She is an amazing hostess who does all she can to make you feel welcome and special. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and airy. Her breakfasts are exceptional with fresh fruit for a variety of cereals and hot entrees cooked as you request.... More
