a satisfactory visit

friendly staff excellent breakfast open beer garden small room hanging cobwebs bathroom attention
the staff were very friendly and helpful . the breakfast included was excellent, setting me up well for the day. the beer garden was a nice, big, open space where i relaxed with a drink.
unfortunately, the room i had was quite small. i noticed cobwebs hanging from the ceiling in the room. i also found that the bathroom needed more attention.

excellent food and friendly service

safe parking delicious breakfast wide selection
The manager offered a great place at the back. I safely parked my motorbike. i received a pint of ale while my room was getting ready. dinner was gorgeous. the breakfast was delicious. It had a wide selection of food.
My room was quite dirty. There were cobwebs hanging from the ceiling. wardrobe doors had no handles. They were broken off, so they weren't easy to open. the bathroom needs attention. It looks like improvements are being made, but nothing is finished.
