Only one night because otherwise the hotel was full!
Pros:

Perfect, family run hotel - warm and welcoming

Cons:

Nothing not to like - only gave it 9 rather than 10 because there's always something somewhere that can be improved! A return visit and it won't be the last.

Firm favourite
Pros:

My very favourite place to stay. Comfortable room with a bath, brilliant staff and the dinner experience is consistently delicious. So looking forward to our next stay which is already booked

Cons:

A lift would be great but the staff are super helpful with getting luggage up and down for those who need it.
