The staff were lovely - dinner and breakfast were excellent- lovely location
Pros:

Great location close to the Town Centre - our room was very spacious with a comfortable bed and bathroom was excellent

Cons:

Because of the nature of the building (old school house) the access to the room meant walking outside and up an external staircase which could be a problem in the winter or when raining
