amazing stay everything was top notch

branded uniformprivate sitting areahuge tvlimited street parking

the attention to detail really stood out i found robes all the teas a dental kit and even branded toilet roll which spoke volumes about the pride taken. sue is such a wonderful and sociable host she even wears a branded uniform for breakfast showing how much she cares. i took the top floor suite and i did not mind the stairs at all i just chilled on the sofa in my private sitting area watching the massive tv.

my only slight issue was the street parking it was limited it was also described as on-site parking this was not the case

small roominconsistent heating

The room felt quite small. Furniture seemed too large for the space provided. the location of the tea and coffee supplies on a shelf above the radiator felt impractical. I found the inconsistent heating annoying. No other heating was available during a cold spell.

the breakfast was acceptable and had some good options.

the room felt small, and there was hardly any space to move around. our window faced a brick wall, so i was a bit disappointed with the view. the inconsistent heating made the room cold, i did expect better.
