Direction and information about the accommodation was excellent. Good value; definitely re-visiting.
Pros:

Friendliness and help from all the staff. Knowledgeable about the area. Parking spaces ample although could be tight to get out for disabled driver.... that would happen if other drivers had vast 4x4's or inconsiderate with their parking. That wasn't the case whilst we were there.

Cons:

Having a slight walking disability the stairs to the upstairs weren't that easy. I was pleased that we had the upstairs room as the bed and views were excellent. John ( the owner) made sure I was shown the various small steps I had to be aware of. As I said earlier, the staff were very caring and attentive.

Rustic hotel
Pros:

Spacious room within a hotel rich in history and heritage. Beautiful garden and some beautiful antique furniture bringing back many childhood memories.

Cons:

This is not a negative comment or rating, however a suggestion or recommendation for future guests. It may be helpful to let guests know if their room is on the top floor. Given the lack of an elevator travellers can carry an extra smaller bag to carry up the stairs, especially for travellers like us who may be spending 2-5 weeks in the UK.

Nice house, poor service!
Pros:

Breakfast was good.

Cons:

Overall service, apart from breakfast was abysmal: for example refusal of ordering a taxi or luggage storage on the day of departure. The place is more a b&b than a hotel, and not in a good way.
