8/10 Very good

Beautiful old building, the staff were all lovely, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent, parking at the front but also a good sized car park at the rear. Nice decor throughout. The bed was comfy but I felt the room was rather small and perhaps updating but I would certainly stay again when I'm next in the area

Wasnt much more than a taxi home , so decided to stay over , ive stayed here before when it was connected to mannings , they have done a very lovely refurb , the breakfast room is light and airy with a fabulous supply of bits and bobs , the only thing that let them down was the shower room but there is little they could do to update that without spending silly money
