a good stay

friendly staffdelicious foodcomfortable mattressoutdated bathroom
the staff were friendly i found. the food was delicious especially dinner. i bought a hypnos mattress after trying it at the inn. the location is also a notable asset offering beautiful views.
the bathroom felt a little outdated i noticed. the shower over the bath was not my preference. it made managing water a bit challenging.

The food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. The breakfast choices were AMAZING!!! Plenty of variety was available. The room was clean and tidy. The bed gave me the best night's sleep I've had in years.
My room was in the stables and called 'The Forge', not 'The King Room'. The blinds were BROKEN on both windows to the front and back. No one asked if my room was comfortable or if I enjoyed my stay.

Good Stay and Excellent Food

excellent foodperfect accommodationcomfortable bedquiet location
The food was excellent as recommended. The accommodation was perfect and very comfortable. The bed was hard and helpful for my back which I especially appreciated. I felt totally away from the Bank Holiday crush.
I thought the wine list could have had a few more bottles priced below £30.
