This property is advertised as a Hotel. Not so, it is a B/B property. Apart from the breakfast and staff, the property was so disappointing for us. We were in an attic conversion, no lock at all on bathroom door, curtains falling from window, poor dirty windows, lots of stairs to room obv, which we had not known about, I could go on. This property can surely not be a 4 Star AA standard. I will be interested to hear your views on this matter. On our trip, we stayed in 3 other similar priced properties, this one did not come close to their standard. This "Hotel" description is not correct in my opinion.

Only issue I had was with the parking around the back, they charged for it (£10) and it was a very tight space right outside a school, so leaving in the morning was very difficult. Otherwise, the accommodation was lovely.
