aphazard parking by others made parking difficult on arrival. Maybe car park lines need to be redone? Interesting that it’s called the Lawns when there wasn’t a lawn? Wasn’t clear where to go to book in, but was ushered inside by helpful person having a drink outside. Was shown quickly to my room by helpful member of staff. Room was clean and tidy and looked recently refurbished. Nice modern shower room. New hard flooring looked nice but needed attention to detail (gaps between planks). Carpet was worn and had threads pulled from it. Bed looked welcoming, but when I sat on it, it was rock hard and the edges of the mattress were higher than the centre. Maybe could benefit from a new mattress? Lots of pillow choice, however, one of the pillow cases I had a tear in it. Door to shower room kept half closing, so I walked into it a few times as I went into the room and turned round to come out again. The shower cubicle was spacious and clean. New wiring in the wardrobe on view. When I returned in the evening (Saturday night, 10.15) music was playing to guests outside the pub, which finished before midnight. My room was on the back of the building, but it could be heard. Continental breakfast was cereal, toast and jam/marmalade/marmite, a croissant and a pain au chocolate, orange or apple juice and a cup of tea or coffee. Breakfast took place in the bar, maybe because of renovations? Staff friendly and welcoming.
