Excellent experience
The interior was clean and well maintained but the exterior was dirty with litter close to the building and around the car park. The ‘flower bed’ at the front would be better filled with gravel than earth.

This property was just outstanding & very visually appealing. We were given a spacious, beautiful room and loved it. Beds were so comfortable. Vintage radio was a nice touch. Everything was clean and every detail was attended to. The location was right in the town square, so everything was walkable. We did need a taxi to get to & from the train station with luggage; otherwise, we walked. Breakfast in the dining room was great with plenty of selection & eggs to order. There isn't a lift, but even so, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Friendly, helpful staff too.
