Overnight Stay at The Slate

We stayed in room 5, it was clean, cosy, warm, with a comfortable bed. Large shower cubicle, soft towels, complimentary toiletries. Nice view from the window. We had an evening meal, large portions, a bit pricey but absolutely worth it.

Had a fantastic stay at The Slate. Staff are excellent and very handy having the restaurant and bar downstairs after a long day travelling. Note that rooms are on first floor up a staircase, no lift. Well appointed and cosy room with modern bathroom amenities. Would definitely stay again.
