It is such a beautiful building in an incomparably lovely setting. Who could not love it? Maybe a little faded ( it’s old!) but full of character! The staff were very welcoming and with a great sense of humour.

Buffet breaksfast was available on request on all days of the week for £12. Food was great and room was very spacious and well equipped. There is no air conditioning so the rooms can get hot in summer. The bathroom fan was also very noisy when running. Overall had a great stay

Location was great for us but expect some road noise during the night if you’re in the rooms facing the front (as we were). Could have done with a larger double bed, but that’s just me, that said, the room was huge, well furnished, well supplied with tea/coffee/ hot chocolate facilities. Shower was good and powerful. Staff were helpful and friendly. Parking was very easy, right outside. Value for money? I think it was just about right. Would definitely stay there again.
