It's not every day you can say you stayed in a 16th century hotel. Of course getting to the room is tricky unless you have balance on wonky floors & stairs. But it's character features, bit of creaky floorboards. The room was fairly modern but was surprised no telephone which I needed. Had to shut the window to sleep to cut down outside noises but not totally. Food was good, restaurant was full, staff friendly. Unique experience.

Wonderful stay in a lovely old building, very good big room. Stairs were interesting but as they were several hundred years old and the staff were good in helping with our bags it added to the fun!
