Short break.
Very enjoyable couple of days. Friendly hosts and tasty breakfast cooked to order. Clean and comfortable room. Plenty of parking. Excellent location for town. Sadly evening restaurant no longer operating but plenty of other eating options within short walking distance, including a lovely Italian.

comfortable and friendly
The staff were all really friendly and made us welcome, the breakfast was good and we had everything we needed.
The room furniture was a little tired but our room was quiet and comfortable and we had an excellent short break. We would certainly stay here again as it was comfortable and just a short walk from the town.

Very comfortable stay. Double room (22). Clean & tidy and staff very friendly. Only complaints, shower needs updating and wife had the avocado for breakfast but it had been mixed with something which made it strangely & texturely not tasty I’m afraid.
