The staff are freindly helpful and always available. This is an old Victorian building with plenty of free car parking spaces. Within walking distance to the centre which is about 10 mins albeit uphill near the hotel coming back, there is a bus stop just outside and you can get the 36 bus to the bus station which is next to the train station and access to thd main shopping area
