“The property strikes a welcoming chord, with staff who clearly understand hospitality, making even the bar area a comfortable spot to linger. Rooms, including accessible options, are well-appointed and clean, though some noted heating could be inconsistent. It's a solid choice for a convenient stay, particularly given the quality of the full English breakfast using local produce.”
