a charming escape

clean roomfriendly staffcute atmospheredecaf coffee
the room was wonderfully clean, and the staff seemed genuinely friendly. i appreciated the private parking available for our bikes, a thoughtful touch. the pub had a cute atmosphere, and the jamaican-welsh fusion food was great, offering a unique and good culinary experience.
I found the tea and coffee selection in our room was exclusively decaf, a bit disappointing given that breakfast wasn't available. A regular coffee option would have been much appreciated.
