Great location and high quality accomadation and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again
Pros:

13th century inn but modernised internally ideally located in the centre of the village. Very friendly and welcoming staff.

Cons:

I was staying in the attic room which was very atmospheric with old beams but fitted out to a high standard. There were however lots of steps up to the room so I was very glad one of the partners did offer to transport my case down them on leaving

Excellent food and very helpful staff.
Pros:

The food and the friendliness of the staff.

Cons:

The bedroom was a little quirky. Like the rest of the hotel it was an interesting mixture of very old and ultra modern. I would have preferred some more comfortable seeting.

Was amazing and would return
Pros:

The room was amazing with a great view. Loved the outdoor seating for an afternoon drink. The evening meal was excellent and such a good choice on the menu. I asked for something extra during the meal, which I had without any questions, so very accommodating.

Cons:

We stayed for 2 nights as attending a wedding. On the 2nd night we were awaken at 5.15am in the morning from the room opposite us. So loud, tv loud, in and out of the door and corridor. We had been to a wedding the day before, so this made us exhausted. I appreciate everyone has different sleep habits, but your customers should understand that there are others staying in the hotel that may still be asleep.
