Great parking, good location within walking distance of the town. Check-in and check out was easy. The beds were firm but very comfortable. The bathroom was very dated and could benefit from a makeover. There was a constant beeping noise all through the night coming from outside the room.

Room clean, check in was straightforward, staff were very friendly and accommodating. We only had breakfast on one day which was poached egg and avocado on toast - nothing very special about this. The evening meal, again we only had one each - sea bass and chicken and ham pie, both meals were good. The summer fruit crumble was also very good.
