Just stayed the weekend at The Watershed. We had a wonderful time. Staff were very nice. The room was spacious, clean and well appointed. Same with hotel lobby and restaurant on premises. Had fun at the bar unwinding from a stressful work week. The brook behind the hotel is pretty. The location is perfect with good restaurants and cafes. We will be back for sure.

We love this place, including the great restaurant with views of the river outside. Our only suggestion is that the beds are too high for a short person to get into easily. Very comfortable once one is in the bed, however.
