Seeing is believing

On the outside the hotel looks nice, but how looks can be deceiving. Went upstairs to the room, the room door was filthy. Got inside and from a distance everything looked ok. The bed was lopsided and lumpy, the bathroom was a whole new level of dirty. Mould around all the shower tray the overhead rainfall shower didnt work. The water took nearly 15mins to warm up and it was barely a drizzle. All mould around the windows cobwebs everywhere. This was supposedly a regal suite????? Just glad it came out of my business pocket and not my own.

Stunning 16 century building with gorgeous stone cottages that actually look like the pictures online! Angelina at reception was fantastic and the restaurant was excellent. Just duck as you walk round and through the doorways as the Elizabethans were much shorter!
Gorgeous stone buildings built in 1588 but very nicely appointed inside.
