The Read House offers a remarkable blend of historical charm and modern amenities, creating a unique experience. The ambiance and decor are quite stunning, truly transporting you to a different era. However, the rooms can be on the smaller side and the service during check-in could be improved, particularly for those carrying luggage. Despite some drawbacks, it's a beautiful place with impressive dining options and close proximity to local attractions.
