Superb hotel, restaurant in an idyllic village, but horribly hot room in Summer.
Pros:

The restaurant is superb. Breakfast was excellent. The village is idyllic.

Cons:

It was a hot night and it was a very hot room up in the roof! The fan was wholly inadequate. The hotel needs to find a better solution.

2 night country break
Pros:

Very large clean, quiet and comfortable room. Nice ale at the bar.

Cons:

No cupboards in the bedroom so lived out of the suitcase (was only 2 nights). Vegetarian options for dinner limited.
