Excellent stay, excellent food.

Stayed 1 night Saturday to Sunday. Free carpark, plenty of spaces. Check in was smooth, room was clean and well presented. Nice little extra touches like hot chocolate and toiletries provided. We ate here for evening meal, food was delicious and portion was very generous. Would recommend contacting to book a table as it was very busy and to ask if there is any entertainment on. We could hear the singer from our room, but that wasn't an issue for us. The free breakfast lived up to expectations having read various reviews. Plenty to choose from on the menu. Opted for the full English and it didn't disappoint. Excellent quality, generous portion size and perfectly cooked. Thank you for a lovely stay.
