A lovely stay.
Pros:

Lovely old Coaching House in a great location.
We stayed in the main pub building which was oozing with history.
Evening roast was gorgeous and staff were very friendly.

Cons:

The mattress was incredibly soft.
The eggs both my wife and myself were served on an otherwise good breakfast have no place on a plate of food anywhere. A very poor choice to not cook us a couple of fresh ones.

Pros:

Breakfast was excellent. Waitress very friendly and accommodating

Fijn verblijf!
Pros:

Voorzieningen waren goed en ontbijt was goed geregeld. Personeel was vriendelijk en het bed lag lekker.

Cons:

Er is best veel geluid vanuit de pub beneden, als je voor 23.00 slaapt hoeft dat in principe geen probleem te zijn.
