    Love quirky and this old hotel certainly is! I’m not very tall but even I had to suck at some of the low ceilings. Every room looked to be individually decorated too. Lovely breakfast

    Breakfast was excellent. Large choice of continental items and then the bacon was probably the best I’ve ever had. Hosts were very friendly and welcoming.
