Peaceful, clean, comfortable, and friendly.
Pros:

Rooms are separated from the bar and restaurant area so that they are very quiet. Spotless. Friendly staff. Comfortable. Good parking. Lovely breakfast.

The accommodation was really nice. Well laid out and comfortable. The rooms are set around a pretty courtyard that would have been even better in a month as flowers start to come out more

A good option for exploring the area.
Pros:

Very comfortable room. Great staff. Well located for nearby walks. Food was good if not exciting.

Not quite the country pub atmosphere we were looking for. More like a smart small hotel.
