Loved the location in the heart of the town and near the 18th hole. Lots of walkable dining options and the sites. The breakfast was great and, while the room was modest, the bathroom was very large and modern. Our TV did not work, but not a big deal. WiFi was adequate. Parking is available on back streets, but can be tricky.

The place to stay !

Very trendy and comfortable hotel, and great location, will be back. Only draw back, Room 6 on ground floor the WiFi reception is terrible. Shows WiFi available, tried running a download speed test which was very very poor, compared to the remainder of the property. Didn’t spoil stay, but if it was for longer it may have.

From private owners to attached to a pub.

There was no one in the property and was not given code for door. Had to go to pub a few doors down. This used to be a beautiful house. 4 bedrooms but is now not cared for and it was quite sad to see a property looking ‘lost’.
