We had a wonderful stay! It was quiet, comfortable, and cozy. We had dinner at the hotel and it was terrific. Overall the room was small but the great location, the cleanliness, and the efficiency of the staff more than made up for that! Highly recommend!

The reception staff were most welcoming however 3 niggling items. 1) I telephoned for some milk to make tea. After two requests and half an hour, I went to reception to collect myself. 2) We left on a day trip. Although we passed reception, neither us or another departing motorist were told that we would need a special coin to open car park barrier. We waited and waited , expecting a camera response. Eventually returned to reception for a coin. 3) We were given a reserved parking space for first night. After that night our reserved sign for the further two nights was removed.
