Thank you for your review, we are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. We are very lucky to be located where we are, close to the town centre and the lovely quarry park. Hopefully you will return to enjoy our hospitality again soon.

Beautifully decorated house, in the centre of town but tucked away from the bustle a bit. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, and the room was very well equipped. The small double i stayed in overlooking the side street had a few quirks, but the bed was very comfy. Breakfast was superb, served in a lovely room looking onto their garden. Front facing rooms can get some noise from the street cleaning and businesses early in the morning, so bear in mind if you need the window open and are a light sleeper. Overall, though, a great hotel.
