"Room (106) was pretty, clean and with a great bathroom with walk in shower. TV was difficult to get working and it was set in an awkward position in the room. Bed was very comfortable though not sure if it was king size as per description. Excellent English breakfast. As there’s a pub downstairs, it was only quiet when the pub closed. We had a great stay"
