A great night's stay in a well located hotel with excellent choice of food
Pros:

Room decor/facilities, hotel location, food quality, staff friendliness

Cons:

Position of the bathroom extraction fan switch. Located on the ceiling next to the fan, but even I, at 6 foot tall, struggled to reach it when standing in the bath, had to stand on tiptoe!

Lovely couple that own the place. Very friendly and helpful. Food was delicious. The room was perfect. Loved the bar area with their nice comfy chairs.
