Amazing little hotel, lovely food and friendly staff.
Pros:

Lovely location and very homely feel to the rooms. There are home made biscuits in the room which is an amazing treat. Bed is super comfortable and room is cosy and warm.
I had to check out really early due to traveling for work and I was able to pre-book breakfast for 7am and it was beautifully cooked and ready for when I went downstairs. The staff are so friendly. Love staying here. Uppingham is such a pretty place to visit.

Cons:

Nothing, everything was perfect 👌
