Ask for a room at the back.
Our second stay here. Our first stay was excellent; we had a room at the back. This time our room at the front was quite noisy. Lots of pub restaurant noise, road noise, and the wall between rooms 1 and 2 must be paper thin as we could hear every word of the tv show they watching next door!
That said, everything is clean and tidy. The decor is classic country style, bathrooms are perfectly adequate. Staff are welcoming and the breakfast choices are plentiful. We had cokked breakfasts whuch were excellent.

Overall I really liked my stay. However as someone travelling for business maybe not the best.
Within my room I could hear the bar which went on until 11.30 also the guest in the room next to me. Really not the best nights sleep
