Brackenridge was good overall. Underfloor heating and privacy is really good. Door lock is unusual but functional. It should lock behind you without having to put the code in again. Things to improve on are; the curtains needed to be wider to block out light and the ironing board was not really suitable for anything. So if you are having a wedding and staying there take your own board.

A quiet retreat just outside the town - easily accessible to everything Martinburough offers including the excellent wineries in the region. Accommodations were lovely and very comfortable. Enjoyed the breakfast options left in the room. The fitness area was great also - well equipped and clean. We really enjoyed our stay.
