This was our third stay at The Ragged Cot and we always have a lovely time. Its position is so convenient to visit many lovely places and has good on site, safe parking. Nice cosy atmosphere with nice bar and restaurant and loads of outside areas to sit. Rooms are basic but ample, the only issue is that the bathrooms are beginning to look very tired and surprisingly there was only 2 tiny complimentary soaps - no shower/body wash or shampoo. Beds are very comfy.
Staff are very attentive and friendly at all times

Very clean, quiet, nicely decorated room. Staff were friendly and it was a good breakfast - with pastries, Yoghurt and a full English on offer as well as smaller plates like eggs Benedict. We were expecting a larger/cosier bar area for drinks on arrival - but assume tables were all laid a d taken for Xmas parties
