I liked parking off the road. It was quiet , yet only 15 ish minutes walk to attractions. Breakfast good. Slept very well. Disappointed the fryer wasn’t working Friday evening for dinner, so limited the choice of the menu, heard other visitors not happy either. I know this was unintentional, but was a shame, as would have eaten elsewhere! All in all… good stay

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Nice hotel, lovely staff and food and very conveniently placed. However the bathroom is incredibly small. If you are a well built person you may have difficulties negotiating the space. I am 5 foot 7 and medium build and I found it awkward. This is obviously something that has been raised with the staff before as I was told 'all the rooms are the same size' when I was given my room card.

The breakfast was lovely and the staff were helpful at check-in. The walls were a bit thin, so you could hear people next door or in the hallway and the room and bathroom were very small/cramped. The wooden spoons for the tea and coffee were not very useful.
