excellent stay

free upgradegarden viewsecure accessgreat breakfast
i found a free upgrade to a top floor room with a view of the back garden! extra parking was available, located round the back (it had secure access). breakfast was great (especially the sausages!). the tables were arranged so our party could sit together.
the room was very warm, possibly due to a heated mirror in the bathroom.

The breakfast had plenty of variety available. It was acceptable.
I received an email asking for a review. It was sent to a Do Not Reply address. I am unsure if they wanted feedback. We stayed Saturday, July 19th, and the bed was awful. The mattress was lumpy and old. The parking fee seemed like a rip-off.
