I like its history and the Staff are excellent. I disliked: a) Wasting so much milk. I only needed a small spoonful. b) Morning shower.......the water was tepid at the most despite the fact that I reported it and was assured it would be better next day. c) Noisy, especially on Friday night. I could feel the bedroom floor vibrating. d) I found the dinner menu very limited after the first evening.

This was an amazing demonstration of the best customer service. Everyone was friendly, welcoming and attentive....with a special mention for the absolutely wonderful Jo. Gorgeous character inn with comfortable bedroom and plenty of peace and quiet. Right in the middle of what I described as the prettiest town centre in the UK

The small rooms at the back of the property have toilet saniflows. The one in our room leaked and kept running at intervals through the night. This is noisy and needs to be fixed. I’m sure that hotel will do it because they are normally very good with everything. It needs a good plumber to look at it and understand what’s going on - it’s not the valve – it’s got another leak into the cistern that goes on filling it and triggering it.
