Very nice. Good central position. Good parking.
Pros:

Sitting in the lounge with pre-supper drinks then late night drinks in front of the fire was very good. Also quiet and private. A good recommendation for a local pub was given by the staff (see below).

Cons:

The restaurant is shut on Weds in January but the website didn't say so.
My room on the top floor didn't have any half-way nice views - just rooves and windows. The single Garden View one I had before was much nicer. I was 'upgraded' to that double, apparently.

Just what I needed.
Pros:

Breakfast - very good. Particularly special effort to get me berries with my yoghurt, even though they weren't on the menu.

Cons:

Parking is quite challenging! But made the best use of the limited space, I think.

Pros:

Very comfortable room, lovely hosts and exceptional breakfast.
