Likes:
The room was clean, the bed comfy, the location good for the town centre, and I enjoyed the breakfast. Free parking behind the pub but it's very small.
Absolutely lovely dog!
Dislikes:
Neither of these botheedr me: people were outside in the beer garden talking until late;
The TV was too high up on a shelf to be able to be watched properly and it wouldn't angle downwards

"Inexpensive and central, twin room"
We stayed overnight after singing in the cathedral. Read less
Likes:
Twin rooms had proved difficult to find so that was a definite attraction. Location not too far from the cathedral was another plus.
Dislikes:
Upon driving to the pub, could not locate the car park and had to park a long way away. The bathroom smelled of drains, which wasn't very nice.

"Very friendly owners and very clean rooms, right in the heart of the town."
We arrived much earlier than the check-in time but, as the room was ready, this was no problem, we were given the keys straight away. It was a very clean room and had all the facilities you needed, hairdryer, tv and tea and coffee making facilities. Read less
Likes:
I loved the fact we were located right in town but strangely, the street we were on was so quiet. Excellent location, lovely friendly owners and all in all, my first visit was very pleasant.
Dislikes:
I wouldn't say, 'not like', but the only thing I would add is that the parking is extremely limited.
