A pleasant short stay that ticked all the boxes.
Pros:

The room was a nice size, well set out with ample facilities, the bed was enormous and comfortable and well equipped bathroom, also tea & coffee in the room. We ate dinner in the restaurant, the staff were very helpful & friendly and we didn’t have to wait very long for our meal that was very satisfying. We also had breakfast before leaving opting for full English but you could help yourself to the continental also so plenty to eat on offer.

Cons:

Would stay here again but would book a meal earlier in the evening
Pros:

Plenty of room, ground floor as requested

Cons:

Booked a table on line for an evening meal at 21.15 but was told on arrival they stopped serving at 21.00 which wasn’t good a# I am diabetic. The lovely lady on r3ception arranged some sandwiches for us. The room was a bit dark with only lamp & no main light
