Our stay was lovely quiet. If above was attended to I to would be 10 out of 10
Pros:

The room was lovely and the staff were excellent & couldn’t do enough for you.
a lovely central position Overlooking the pretty town and near to everything . Some lovely shops
Parking was excellent

Cons:

There was no cereals it would be nice to have them put out.
The room was lovely nice & clean & large .
The bed was very comfortable but the bathroom needed attention.
The towel rail hadn’t been cleaned it was very mucky from previous guests .
The taps were full of scale & looked awful it could have easily been removed. There was muck in the corners round the bath & floors. Just needed a good clean.
The vegetarian meals weren’t plentiful or exciting. Veggies need a variety to choose from Like meat eaters I like to see something a bit exciting on the menu for veggies
