Fit for purpose.
Good room, bfast options good, anemic sausages only down side.
Bfast timings could be earlier than 7am due to location and requirement to drive to place of work.

Enjoyable stay
Our second visit, and more planned. Beautifully decorated, and clean rooms. Had a lovely meal in the pub. Some of the rooms are upstairs and down fairly long corridors, so my only advice would be to book directly, to ensure a ground floor room if needed.

excellent accessible overnight stay
I was only staying overnight but I was very comfortable - I am over 80 and disabled so that was very important. The only problem was that although I thought I had booked an accessible room I hadn't so it is important to talk to the reception team - who swiftly corrected that and found me an accessible room within a few minutes. I didn't like the AI receptionist who answered the phone but she is easily sidestepped by just insisting 'Manager' and you get put through. The dinner was very good.
