Lovely

Lovely pub with rooms, and I had a super big room with a bath and huge bed! Easy check in, lovely staff. Enjoyed dinner, lots of choice. Again, great choice at breakfast but service at breakfast let it down - young lad who didn’t appear to be interested in the residents at all. I’d not let it put me off staying again.
