A good value, old school B&B
Pros:

It was clean and comfy with friendly attentive staff and good food. It’s not the Ritz and some of the facilities are pretty ‘tired’; that said, it does what it says on the tin and, for the money we thought it was great. Certainly, no complaints about the room, and breakfast was one of the best I’ve had anywhere, served by staff who took their job seriously.

Cons:

There’s no dedicated parking and we needed to use the nearby council car park

It was easy to get to parking was fine stuff very welcoming clean and tidy thank you
Pros:

It’s locality

Cons:

Wi-Fi would’ve been good in the room, even if we had to pay we would’ve done. The outside seating area could’ve done with tidying up.
