a lovely stay
excellent breakfastperfectly cooked baconprofessional staffgood location
the breakfast was excellent and a real treat. i particularly enjoyed the full english breakfast with its perfectly cooked bacon. all the staff members were really professional and polite, so helpful too. i found the location good, near the attractions i planned to visit.
the television was very small for the room, a small inconvenience. the remote for it did not work, a minor frustration.
