Lovely relaxing 2 night getaway
Pros:

Very stylish, bonus car park lovely location. Good food and polite staff

Cons:

Room 7 was very small, description does say small room but there wasn’t adequate space to manoeuvre from the bed to the bathroom without bashing your legs, curtains on that side in the way, we placed them up on the window sill.
Good bathroom and easy to manage shower with immediate hot water
There was a chair and a table in the room but to get to the drawers below the table you have to remove the chair, … total faff.
Very clean room, comfy bed and pillows tea and coffee plus plenty of plugs and the bonus of 2 fans.

The cost to stay here was NOT very good value for money.
Pros:

Lovely location and very good breakfast

Cons:

We booked a small double, and it was indeed very very small. The dark decor made the already tiny room very dark dingy and claustrophobic. If we were larger people we would have struggled to squeeze in to the corner housing the toilet.

Ideally placed for walks along the canal which met my needs.
Pros:

The room was very clean and quiet. The staff friendly and helpful. Great outdoor space to relax in. Good indoor area for meals.

Cons:

It could have been it was a bank holiday weekend but the food was over cooked and not as good as I would expect. Forty minutes to an hour wait I heard the waiter telling another table. Fortunately I didn’t wait that long.
