Very pleasant stay in an ensuite room. Recently refurbished to a high standard. The rooms are fairly basic but very clean and fresh. On a hot day it was a real advantage that there was aircon in the room. Staff very friendly and helpful. This was very good value for money and the complimentary hot and cold breakfast was an added bonus. We'll come again.
