Last minute overnight stay.
Pros:

Room on fraont of property on second floor - lift level wih new annexe art bqack so few stairs to climb.
Room cleean and comfortable. Fiull size bath with shower. Good selection for breakfast and chef willing to cook variations of the menu. Excellent Pale Ale.

Cons:

Lift level wih new annexe at back so few stairs to climb - but adds to the ambience of the warrren like feel of the coridoors. Limited parking on site but free council car park immediately outside that available until after checkout. Cobbles in yard so suitcase wheels make a loud noise while pullinng along.
