Had a lovely 1 night stay at this hotel with my daughter when visiting friends. Hotel was very clean, perfectly situated for exploring the area, staff were so welcoming and friendly (we especially loved Ruby the dog at breakfast) We would like to return in summer for a longer stay.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Staff very welcoming but overall it’s disappointing. Far too expensive for the type of accommodation. Initial impression meeting guests is that it is dishevelled and messy. It’s an old building so the bedroom floor is all off the level . The room was very poor with a big patch of wallpaper covering a damp wall. Food was poor enough for the price. The rating isn’t reflective of the property.

This was our second time here -- and it was just as excellent as our first one a year ago. Breakfast remains delicious...really appreciate how it's cooked to order. This time, we had dinner at the restaurant one of the nights -- also delicious and a great atmosphere

Loved it. Room was adequate (once you’ve got used to all the creaks and bumps). This is a 16th century building in all its glory. Food was plentiful, well cooked and hot. Although our room over looked an island there was no problem with road noise. There was plenty of parking front and rear. Cannot sing it’s praises enough, in fact we’ll be going back just as soon as we can. Loved it!

Although we did not have hot water for the night we arrived, they immediately resolved the issue first thing in the morning. Took it seriously and did not sit on it and apologized for the inconvenience. Great staff, quiet environment, and good food, we will definitely return.
