clean decor outdoor seating back garden
The hotel location suits my walks well. The decor was nice and all clean. I liked the outdoor seating at the small pub and I enjoyed drinks in the back beer garden in the sunshine.
The tables were a little sticky at breakfast one morning. It was not pleasant.
