My wife and I enjoyed our stay at The Reluctant Panther. The property was beautiful and conveniently located just a short drive from the town center. There are also restaurants and other hotels within walking distance. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. We enjoyed the complimentary breakfast that was delivered to our door each morning. Shout out to Richard for an easy check in/out. We hope to come back for another stay.

It feels like home when we stay here. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Our room was upgraded and we loved the fireplace and jacuzzi tub! Breakfast is delivered right to your room in a lovely picnic basket. This was our second stay. We will definitely be back.
