Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Nice greeting when we arrived,our room was alright comfortable but slightly shabby.Clean though.we had a cream tea in the afternoon which really wasn’t very good at all,the scone turned to dust after I cut into it,making it almost impossible to spread anything on it.
We had a good nights sleep the bed was comfortable
The breakfast was disappointing,couldn’t finish my sausage
Throughout our stay there was a strange smell in the building.
