Nice old hotel in lovely village
Pros:

The staff were lovely and very helpful. The breakfast was good with lots of variety. There is a nice outside seating area and the hotel is in a good central position in this lovely village.

Cons:

The first room we slept in was right next to the kitchen extractor fan so we couldn't open the windows which made the room far too hot. However, we were moved to a much more comfortable room when we asked to change rooms for the second night.

Alright, dirty rooms, mould etc, wouldn’t stay again.
Pros:

Food was great

Cons:

Staff were slow, rooms locked you in if you turned your key the wrong way to unlock it to get in… which is a massive fire risk. We had to shout for a cleaner to let us out….
