10/10 Excellent

Had a fantastic 3 night stay at this gem of a place. The room and grounds were meticulously kept. The Spa experience was fantastic. Had a message and facial, and both ladies who gave the service were incredible. Extremely professional in every area. Thank you!!! ALL the staff at Granny's Mouse were awesome in every way. From check in, to dinning room staff, to barman to check out and everything in between, was handled in a friendly and smooth manner. Thank you to all the staff that made...
