Overpriced poor value , stay...

Liked: Comfortable rooms and bed
Disliked: Owner and policy of booking . Better restaurants in town and very overpriced . You try and cancel a full 8 hours before a lunch reservation they charge you 25 pounds per head even when the restaurant is not full. Have to purchase an over priced set menu better off staying and eating in town . Only two beers on tap and overpriced . Owner tells the same joke to all customers.
