Good location in town centre, parking on site, very nice friendly and helpful staff. Food & drink good. Nice decor and room tidy. Only complaint - room was on the front and noisy with traffic - requires double glazing and better coverage curtains to stop car lights. Traffic is light but the windows are old and offer no sound reduction. But I would be happy to stay again - in a different room.
