We had a a very large room and large bathroom and super-size bed. We were very comfortable, and the hotel’s location was perfect, with two nice pubs just a stone throw way, and lots of shopping nearby.

Interesting old building, not a boring modern one. Staff were all very friendly, informed, and engaged - didn’t seem unhappy/bored with what they were doing as with some hotels. Breakfast was lovely. Had parking in front that was easy to access...

The hotel is lovely, well situated with good parking. The staff are always super friendly and helpful. Choosing a suite means there is plenty of room and great amenities so that family staying in other rooms can spend time with us in...
