A small but friendly hotel with a very highly recommended restaurant. I booked a single room which was perfectly suited to my needs. Parking is tight but that has to be expected in a Medieval town that was built for horses not cars. Overall a very pleasant stay. I would certainly stay again.

Great, central location, nice walk into main part of town. Room was comfortable and clean. The owner was very helpful, moving cars around to make sure parking was sorted. Also allowing us to use a different room for a shower in the morning, as I broke the pull cord on the shower in our original room!

It was a clean room, with a beautiful white duvet cover, and white towels in the bathroom. The breakfast is in a cupboard and a fridge and is a fine breakfast, with bread, yogurt, jams, and cereal, with tea, coffee, hot chocolate. The Candlesticks is very different, which is lovely.
