We'll be back....
Pros:

Staff were lovely. They were very welcoming and we felt at home immediately.

Good beer, great pies (just about the best I've ever had) and a lovely atmosphere in the pub from staff and regulars alike.

Cons:

Not necessarily a reflection on the property, more the weather, however, the rooms were very hot, despite the fans provided. It was 35C outside though, so I suspect everyone was suffering.

As usual, very welcoming.
Pros:

A warm and courteous welcome from the staff. When the receptionist was about to show me to my room, she saw I had mobility difficulties and asked if I would prefer a ground floor room, or a room with a few stairs. I said yes, and thanked her for asking. She showed me to room with only 3 steps to enter. It was perfect for me. the meeting I was at dined at the hotel and, as usual, the food was excellent. Breakfast was exactly what I wanted and very tasty. Having stayed there before, I was pleased that all was to the usual high standard.

Cons:

There was nothing not to like.

Comfortable overnight stay
Pros:

Lovely old hotel with a myriad of rooms in the bar and restaurant area. Friendly welcome and help with storing our bikes. Positioned overlooking the market square but we had a quiet stay. Can’t comment on dinner as we ate out with local friends.

Cons:

Breakfast was a little disappointing as few options apart from full English buffet. But tea was excellent and I made a bacon butty
