The Crown Manor House Hotel

The Crown Manor House Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is really lovely. Loads of character and although it is situated on a busy road, it is really quiet and we managed to chill and relax. Bed was really comfortable, so had a really good sleep. Breakfast was great, had everything from pastries, Continental, cereals with loads of extras to put on, fresh bread and a few kinds, fruit juices, and full English with tasty sausages. If I can find one thing wrong it would have to be the meal we had, wouldn't recommend eating a meal there, but plenty of places to eat really close by."
