The stairs are a huge problem if anyone has any difficulty in walking or climbing. Lack of room numbers to point you in the direction of your room. I was confused by the fire door sign on the door and thought i could not enter so spent ages trying to find my room whilst struggling with the stairs until I was refused by a delightful young staff member who carried. my luggage to my room.

Had a lovely overnight stay here. I arrived early as I was attending a wedding and was able to access my room no problem to get ready. Room has recently been re-furbished and is beautiful. The staff are very friendly and helpful and the breakfast is good too. I would have no hesitation in returning.

Great Food

Great staff, clean room and fantastic food. The breakfast in particular was exceptional. But be warned, the portions are huge. All in all, a quaint little hotel that offers service well above its price band
