Very enjoyable stay while I was attending a course. Lovely managers and staff. Shame no meals other than breakfast available but I'm sure the managers will get this sorted soon. Ample parking. Very traditional English pub - I hope it stays that way! Quaint and charming in the bar, but rooms were modern and well equipped.
