Staff made us feel very welcome, safe and comfortable during our stay last week. The hotels location is superb. All precautions in place for COVID-19 including hand sanitising, hotel was extremely clean and limited contact with staff. Bedroom was larger than most normal hotel bedrooms. Bed was extremely comfortable. Hotel has a small car park and directions to it very clear. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again after lockdown restrictions are lifted. Can highly recommend Knight and Garter, Giggling Squid, Kai, and Middleton Steakhouse which are all within walking distance - literally on the doorstep!

Joanne United Kingdom
