Very good accommodation and food

I love staying here for work. The rooms are very nice, comfortable and clean. The food in the pub is good, and the cooked breakfast is amazing. If there is one thing I can suggest for improvement, is the use of little toiletries. I stay here at least once a month and I never finish those little bottles so it’s a bit of a waste. I can suggest changing into big refillable bottles to avoid wastage and use of plastic.
