One of the best places to stay with a dog. Staff are very dog friendly and the property is quite large to walk your dog around so it's very convenient. The rooms also have a good sized bath so it was excellent!

Windows need attention. Room window was made of wood and was in poor condition. Had to be physically forced open due to warping. Fittings on window loose. Room in general was good.

This is a great advertisement for British hospitality - everything was very good from check-in to check-out, and the restaurant is good and breakfast is traditional English - highly recommended.
