Nice cosy English hotel.

Third time using this hotel, staff are friendly and eager to help. The property is a typical old English hotel with no elevator but has a cosy feel of which my family enjoyed on all three stays.

Pleasant stay

Room was clean, comfortable and had basic amenities. Rooms are aged and look tired but this really does not bother me. Breakfasts and parking were included in the room rate and they both were good. Friendly staff.
