Pros:

Great food, friendly stuff, good location. V. comfortable bed, especially good when you've spent the day walking. Loads of hot water.

Cons:

Nothing really - bath was slightly sunken so a bit tricky if you're getting on a bit!

Excellent value, extremely comfortable and clean. Delicious meal and super helpful staff.
Pros:

Charming style for the pub, restaurant, and our room.

Cons:

Finishing touches: no chair to sit at the table in our room. The mirror should be hung in a well lit area. No coat hooks by the door. The timing of your emails about check in, and check out needs review. I received them at times that didn’t match where we were in our stay with you. Honestly these are the only constructive things we can think of for improvement - everything was wonderful!
