We had a comfortable, one...

Liked: The staff were lovely, friendly and helpful Building had loads of character Food was really nice
Disliked: Our room backed into garden area so was overlooked and the windows didn’t shut properly or open very wide for fresh air. Very early morning was woken up by a lot of noise from above us. Hair dryer lead was coiled so didn’t allow us to dry our hair properly Lack of power plugs convenient to charge phone near bed at night
