A great place to stay
Pros:

The location was picked as my husband had been going to go to a tank driving experience. Unfortunately the driving experience was cancelled at short notice but as we had already booked we decided to have a bike road trip instead. We had a great day & received a warm welcome when we arrived at the hotel. The staff were friendly & we decided to have a meal there too. The food was excellent & they had Neck Oil on tap( always a plus in my opinion). The next day we also decided to have breakfast which was tasty & food value. I suspect if the tank driving experience can be rearranged with the company running it we shall probably stay there again.

Cons:

It was a bit warm and although the fan was welcome a slightly lighter duvet might have been useful but otherwise it was a great stay
