Not for us! We were disappointed with the hotel. Were given attic room up four lots of stairs. Decor very dated and mismatched. Room cold even though electric radiator provided. En suite shower very small with no heating. Bed quite firm which we found uncomfortable. On plus side bed linen very clean as were towels. Breakfast was nice and well presented although again room was cold. In fact whole building was quite cold as certainly not many radiators. We actually cut our visit short and only stayed for one night instead of the two we had planned.

If you do stay (and you should) then book direct. It's cheaper and no third parties causing confusion (we've had problems). We often visit family in the area and have tried many different places, but we will not need to try any others now. It's a lovely building, full of character with a real charm. The decorations are authentic and add to the homely welcome feel. We slept like logs on the comfy beds after busy days in the area. The breakfast is second to none and kept us going until the evening - full English (a guilty pleasure we have on our trips), cereal, fruits, yogurts, pastries, everything you could want. All cooked beautifully with a special nod to the poached eggs; Pauline did tell me how to do them (you put them in the bubble), but mine never come out as well. Free private car park, free wifi, I have paid a lot more for a lot less especially in England (we're from Toronto). It has all the little things you need. The hosts are relaxed and friendly and will do anything for you. Going above and beyond is no problem for them. A real home from home.
