Wow! What a magical place Edgewater is. I came to relax and as soon as i walked in I felt calm. The restaurant has fabulous food, from breakfast to dinner. Sitting outside up on the hill and looking down at the lake was my favourite. The grounds are just lovely. The staff were attentive and nothing was too much trouble. They even offered to carry my bags to my room. The walk around the lake was absolutely beautiful. I would highly recommend a stay here.

While we loved the location and outlook of this property; we were disappointed with aspects of the room. They were visibly old in parts and noisy (poor insulation) which meant we were kept awake by people above and besides us and walking on the external steps. We also had a long wait (well beyond the check-in time) to be able to check-in to our room, despite being told we would be able to check-in early. For the price of this accommodation, the overall experience and condition of the hotel was disappointing.
