A really lovely hotel and we couldn't fault the superior room we stayed in. Staff were friendly and keen to help, breakfast was cooked to order and was delicious. Lovely bar area and off course Pecks restaurant now on site - which was the reason for our stay at the hotel (Dinner at Eight). The only slight disappointment was that the website indicated there would be a band on from 6-8pm on the night we stayed but we were told they haven't been booked for January. It didn't spoil our stay though, it just would have been the icing on the cake!

Breakfast menu was very good with a large variety of choice. Unfortunately very understaffed. Only one young man, taking breakfast orders and running the reception for people checking out.
