    The hotel is well maintained and I really liked the decor. There were lots of lovely seating areas around the hotel as well as a very pleasant enclosed patio with tables and chairs.

    This is an inn from the 1400s, thoroughly modernized, of course and added on to. So it had atmosphere, a painting in the lobby of the inn long ago. The breakfast was very good with a wide variety, from full English, to coco pops, fruit, coffee...

    The hotel is on a major road,so easy to get to other places. Weather wasn't good but if it had been the gardens are nicely kept. Plus you can sit outside to eat/drink. There is a bar and restaurant. The receptionist who greeted us was very helpful...
