Quiet hotel surrounded by gardens with friendly staff
Pros:

The staff were very helpful, and the hotel was good value, with spacious car park onsite and picturesque garden at the back. Quiet surroundings, nice room and good breakfast.

Cons:

Only a small point, that one of the mattresses in our room had quite a significant dip/depression in the middle which made sleeping a bit uncomfortable. As the hotel is not staffed in the late evening we were not able to report it until the morning. However, the staff were very helpful then and changed the mattress so we had a better sleep on the second night. We were grateful for their quick and helpful response.
