Only an overnight stop, but nice spacious room in very convenient spot with parking. New owner offered to swop the spa room we had had to book for an accessible room, which was larger and no spa bath to climb over to shower. He gave us great locality info for dinner at the adjoining pub and cafes for brekky. Pub food great and generous. Nice bed and quiet room.
