Pepper Tree Inn

8/10 Good
"The place was more shabby than I expected and amenities were lacking. The "terrace" is not exactly off the room as it appears in pictures, and it is an ugly expanse of crumbling concrete with a few chairs, no umbrellas. The pool shown in some pictures is filled with wood chips. The room is small with older furnishings. However, the location is wonderful with the Commons Beach just across the street and a short walk to Fanny Bridge and many trails. I would stay there again if the price was right."
