"Functional hotel with great breakfast"
Stayed overnight in family room for walking weekend. The staff were friendly a welcoming and the breakfast was lovely. The rooms were very tired looking and in need of a refresh/new carpet and the sofa bed in the room was definitely ready for retirement. This is a great location for exploring with loads of good pubs nearby, as long as you are looking for something functional and aren't too worried about a modern room. Read less
Dislikes:
Overpriced for the quality but there were cheaper rates for alternative dates.
