Cons:

We booked this pub under the illusion that it was a fully functioning pub but was told when we arrived that they were only open for B/fast . Nothing else in the town to eat had to travel out of town to find a place to have dinner and drinks .

Pleasant enough and would’ve been better if the pub was open.
Pros:

Nice village. I was given an apartment so that was good. It had a kitchen.

Cons:

Pub not open for meals; although guests had been notified it was because of illness. Fair enough. Also being given an apartment was nice but there was no crockery or cutlery.

Angenehme Unterkunft in ruhigem Umfeld
Pros:

Das Hotel lag ruhig jn St. Michael. Leider sind Bar und Restaurant nicht mehr aktiv aber gegenüber kann man eine leckere Pizza kaufen und diese im „Members Club“ bei einem Bier verzehren. Wir hatten dort einen tollen Abend in sehr netter Gesellschaft. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker. Parkplatz inklusive.

Cons:

Alles ist ein bisschen in die Jahre gekommen aber es war sauber und ordentlich. Um mobil zu sein ist ein Auto zwingende Voraussetzung um z.B. Bath zu besuchen. 100£ die Nacht war schon ne Ansage aber für eine Nacht in Ordnung.

Pros:

Abbiamo avuto la fortuna di avere una camera quadrupla nonostante fossimo in due.
Bagno molto ampio.
Colazione solo salata, classica inglese, ma molto buona.

Cons:

Nei dintorni c’è poco per non dire niente, quindi anche per cenare ci si deve spostare in auto per circa 4 miglia.
