The room was spotless and lovely..modern and stylish. I had everything I needed - a very comfortable bed, a huge tv and tea and coffee making facilities. Also a breakfast/starter kit. I unfortunately I did not realise that there is no lift and I have mobility issues..this was hard for me. I am not sure this was made clear somewhere.

An heritage pub with good accommodation. Some beautiful touches from the past (e.g., leadlight windows and chandeliers). We enjoyed the deluxe balcony rooms which had plenty of room, two seperate showers facing each other and access to a large balcony overlooking the street. The pub and dining area lacked good interior design and charming character. The exterior of the pub needed some TLC. Good value stay with easy access to main road (hence cafes, bakery, shops, galleries, etc.).

A short stay but pleasant, very clean and comfortable. It’s right in the middle of town and easy walking to everything. Might be a bit tricky for an older person because of stairs. I’m old but thankfully still quite fit.
