Wonderful and Clean Stay!

airy roomcomfortable spacefriendly staffgreat location
The room was lovely, airy, comfortable, and very clean. It included everything I needed, a bed, a shower, a TV. tea and coffee-making equipment. The location is lovely and offers a decent-sized car park, helpful. The staff were friendly, and the evening meal I had in the pub was great (especially the fish!). I appreciate the excellent food.
The pub closed early on the day I arrived, so I couldn't enjoy a drink there after my journey.
