acceptable stay, some issues
terrible bed ground floor
the location is convenient to the town centre. (i enjoyed my walks.)
the ground floor room i occupied had a terrible bed. i felt the springs as soon as i sat. both my wife and i experienced significant discomfort and sleeplessness. i mentioned this to reception upon checking out but it affected the quality of my stay. the room showed a need for an upgrade.

admirable stay
ample space fresh food free parking afternoon cake
our double room on the second floor had ample space and offered good lighting. the breakfast selection was abundant, and the food was consistently fresh. i appreciated the complimentary coffee and cake available each afternoon. the free parking on the premises was very convenient.
the hotel locked its doors at 7pm. you do have a key for after-hours access. this felt slightly unusual.

Excellent Stay in Ideal Location
free upgrade central location convenient parking
The staff provided a free room upgrade. The hotel's location is near the town centre and lake. The front garden is well-kept. Parking access was convenient.
I only received one plastic bottle of water for my entire stay. Purchasing more was required, or refilling from the bathroom. It reminded me of a shoestring approach. I think it should be free.
