Amazing Find!
Pros:

Absolutely amazing hotel.
We stayed here after visiting the Harry Potter Studios as it's only a 20 minute drive away.
We had a family room which consisted of a large bed and sofa bed.
Both beds were very comfortable.
The room itself was stunning, little touches like a coffee machine, kettle and mini bar if needed.
The shower was incredible! We had a bath included in the room but we didn't use it.
The room was very quiet, to say it's above a pub we couldn't hear any noise.
We booked the room which included breakfast and we were not disappointed, the breakfast choices were very good and the food was incredible.
We didn't have dinner at the pub, we chose to eat out at a restaurant in the town.
The town is small but there's plenty of choices for eating out.
Don't hesitate to book, you won't regret it.
It's a home away from home.
