Wonderful - 4.5 out of 5

John Fri, 1 August 2025

Superb

Liked: The room. Good choice of breakfast food. But not the cooked breakfast.
Disliked: Hard fried eggs, sausages were very soft, low pork content and rashers had white gunge on them, so most likely not dry cured but had added brine. Black pudding dried out.
