Nice for 1 night stopover

Stayed in a garden room. Nice and quiet away from the main house and street. Not serving breakfast due to hosts wanting guests to support the local businesses, which is understandable. Just a short walk to the hot pools and towels are supplied by your hosts. Monteiths Bar short walk on the on corner is great for a pub style meal and good beer.

Our room was beautiful and so comfortable. The icing on the cake was the marvellous breakfast served in our little bower. We both agree that Len made the best home-made hollandaise ever on our salmon and eggs. Thanks Len!
We really enjoyed our stay and are already recommending Cheltenham House to our friends.

Welcoming Cosy Stay

I wasn't to sure about this stay, I thought it was going to feel like we were going to be staying at someone's house, we had a one year old and were worried that we were going to be seen as a nuisance, but we couldn't be more wrong. We both felt really welcomed, the room was lovely and spacious, everything was so clean and tidy and the hosts were absolutely lovely, nothing was a problem, our one year old loved it. The breakfast in the morning was delicious and was beautifully presented. The location was perfect, so close to the township itself.
It was completely optional, but you could join other guests along with the hosts to have a glass of wine or two in the billiards room, next to the fire in the evening. It was really unique and lovely way to meet other people who were on vacation and the hosts themselves.
I couldn't fault our stay, would definitely recommend this hotel to friends.
