A really nice hotel with good parking, not so good if it was raining as you have to walk, the Hotel is lovely and the restaurant served some really nice food , although breakfast wasn't very good at all, stewed beans, no tinned tomatoes and the coffee cups were tiny, being charged £14 was excessive, restaurant food was delicious but a little too expensive
