Staff very friendly however not enough to cope with breakfast . Would have liked freshly cut fruit to go with the yoghurt and tea pots for the tea. Parking could be an issue. Overall a pleasant stay.

Breakfast was very greasy and could have been better. Need to purchase a new toaster as it takes FAR to long and doesn't toast very well.

Great location but the hotel needs an upgrade. Beds and pillows are very uncomfortable and the lack of air conditioning left us sweltering until morning. Love the history of the hotel but it seems understaffed and is quite dated. Breakfast is a bonus!

The hotel was adequate for a single night's stay but I would have regretted making the booking if we were staying for an extended period. The room was very tired and the fittings in the ensuite were falling apart. The room and ensuite (and probably public areas) appeared clean but the fact that it had not been redecorated in many many years and the ensuite walls were peppered with holes with rawlpugs still visible and fixtures that wobbled and hung means that unless the property is known to have been refurbished we will not be returning.

With luck there will be few hot days, but without air conditioning or fans the hot days are miserable in a small room. Especially because the authorities have limited the degree the window can be open.

Parking is 1st come 1st served and it seems like half the village uses the hotel car park so youll need to park down the road and pay for overnight parking

Nice stay in conveniently located hotel. Reasonably sized car park but can fill up quickly and on street parking not good. Only single-glazed windows (presumably because hotel is in a conservation area?) so external noise levels quite high at times

Liked: Staff & service
First of all I would like to say that the breakfast was absolutely wonderful, I think the staff were very nice apart from one member of staff who obviously had a evening off before work next day because I recognize him . I went to the bar waiting to be served but he came back from wherever thought I was rude by standing in this place I could tell this from his reaction on his face I moved to the other side of a bar I think he works early morning exception area , just felt uncomfortable . But on a lighter note the other staff was absolutely wonderful very clean Hotel very nice what let it down was bedroom number2, very very small very claustrophobic so that is why I've only given a few stars would I stay here again probably No

Old comforts

My room was as far away as you could walk in the old building and the shower was small, so narrow I had to suck it in bigtime and turn sideways to get in and out while protecting the little fella, but it served its purpose. Breakfast was great, so much to choose from. Good bar too. The staff were brilliant very accomodating. I would go back but get a different room.
