The room was clean and spacious as was the en-suite shower room. The staff on the desk were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was excellent, although I would have liked to see mushrooms amongst the hot food on offer. I requested vegetarian sausages and they were good quality, probably Linda McC. All in all a very pleasant stay and lovely quiet location.
