Wonderful room and facilities, great value and a lovely location. The attention to detail in the room to make your stay comfortable is above and beyond I’ve experienced at other hotels
Great hotel. Lovely room with lots of little touches — and plus points for having decent sized mugs for tea instead of piddly little cups. The breakfast cooked to order was very good on all 3 days and the restaurant meal very good. Parking is a bit of a chore but manageable. Staff all very pleasant

Comfortable and cosy room, a welcome oasis from the weather outside. Perfect central location and a great view out onto the market square. Well equipped, and with a good hot shower. All the staff we encountered were super-friendly, and it was an all-round nice and welcoming place to stay for a winter break.
Lovely room -quiet & spacious. Staff very friendly in the bar & restaurant.
Bathroom very cold in room 209 - suggest staying away from this lovely room in the winter!
