adequate experience

friendly staff cooked breakfast historic pub rickety stairs faulty heater suspect tv
The breakfast had friendly staff. There were plenty of cereals and yoghurts. Hot cooked breakfast options WERE also AVAILABLE. It included a lovely pub steeped with history.
i found the stairs slightly rickety. It was a bit of A challenge for me. The heater didn't work, unfortunatelly. The blind and the TV were suspect.

decent STAY , BUT with some ISSUES

parking problem thin walls
parking was a SIGNIFICANT problem. I found NO parking nearby. The closest car park required a ten-minute walk down a steep hill. The building was also VERY noisy. It seemed the walls were thin.
