Church View B&B

10/10 Excellent
"The room was clean and well maintained. This was the only place I felt comfortable walking around in socks instead of my slippers. If I was a barefoot person, I would have gone barefoot. It was dim and I found out later it's just what they do as an energy saving measure. The room was warm (no A/C) but we were able to open the window for some fresh cool air while we slept. There was a hairdryer and other amenities. Shampoo was provided and thankfully, not combined with body wash. The shower needs more water pressure (rinsing my hair took forever) and the drain is slow. Bathroom sink narrow (toothbrush for reference). There was a lighted vanity mirror in the bathroom but due to electrical problems, sadly it didn't work. I put my makeup on near the window for some light. Maybe a battery operated mirror? Breakfast was not included in the price which is weird for us (in the US a B&B includes breakfast). It was good food and cooked to order. There was music pumped into the dining room and different music wafted in from the kitchen. It was a bit of sensory overload. I recommend the same music for both!"

"Abbey Hotel was magnificent!! The staff were helpful and kind and very attentive. The food and drinks were fabulous and the pool was great! It was a truly beautiful place and the 13th century Abbey ruins in the back was a phenomenal historic site!! So much to do on site, we didn't even wander out much! But when we did, the city center was close and convenient. Right by the train station, too!!"
