    Pleasant staff, good location, free car parking, excellent breakfast, comfortable room that was cleaned daily, provision of clean towels, sherry & biscuits during the afternoon.

    The evening meal, provided by an outside firm, was adequate but rather overpriced.

    comfortable bed
    friendly staff
    main road noise
    pricey upgrades
    limited dining options

    The double room with a four-poster bed was spacious and beautifully decorated, offering a comfortable stay with a fantastic garden view. A delicious breakfast with local regional bread was a highlight, and the staff were genuinely friendly and accommodating. Convenient access to the city via bus routes was a plus, but noise from the road did detract from the experience.
