Lovely stay
Perfect location for what I wanted to be able to do. Room was ‘cosy’ smallish but I was travelling alone so not an issue. Price was reasonable and took that into account so not a complaint just an observation. Parking not as difficult as I expected (midweek). Very warm welcome and I felt everything had been thought of in advance.
