We were given a great welcome by Pam who quickly checked us in and answered all our questions. The room could not have been better ; it was spotless and the attention to every detail was spot in .We could not have asked for more . The location is excellent , quiet but within two minute walk of the high street and all its attractions. We would unreservedly recommend anyone to stay here . Thanks for a great couple of days stay .
