Location was great, for a base. Check in/out was quick and easy, breatfast was superb, although you have to order hot food, and time it well for making your toast. It felt safe as a solo traveller. The heating was so hot in the room, did not need to bring my dressing gown.

Central hotel with great staff
Central hotel with parking. Very friendly and attentive staff with a nice cooked breakfast. The hotel has a great history and yes its old, but comfortable and would not be half as interesting if modified. We would definitely return.

The reviews said tired but exhausted would be more accurate. Cobwebs in my room, cobwebs in dining room. Bit of the carpet mystifyingly missing. Rust marks in bath. Breakfast - cheap food. Everything grubby. Huge hotel - historic coaching inn. Staff pleasant but the owners really taking the p**** by charging £90 a night for a single.
