We weren’t made aware before our stay that the kitchen closes at 4.30 on Sundays and only charcuterie boards are available. It was ok for us but don’t know what vegetarian guests do! Everything else was good about our stay. Comfy clean quiet accommodation and tasty breakfast options.

Overall, generally very good and comfortable stay but the bedroom was a little on the warm side (even with the window open) and the wifi never really worked. Staff were friendly and helpful. Evening food was very good and the staff were very attentive to whether or not guests had any allergies. Breakfast was also good and well cooked but quite limited in there being no self-service continental option - you had to order this as your breakfast option from the menu. All in all, an enjoyable stay in a good location. Would recommend to anyone looking for accommodation in the area.
