We really enjoyed our stay at the Pembroke. Our room was lovely with a view of the castle. Breakfast was excellent and I really enjoyed the waffles especially since I am someone who is gluten intolerant. It was a real treat. We were both very pleased that Sara recommended breakfast to take away with us on the second morning as we had to leave early to catch the train. Sara was especially helpful on a couple of occasions. Thanks so much!
