Victorian Charm with Modern Comforts
victorian buildingmodern bathroomfull englishrailway station
The hotel boasts a beautiful victorian building with original features meticulously maintained. The bathrooms are modern and spotlessly clean. I particularly enjoyed the shower. Breakfast offered many options including a satisfying full english breakfast. A bus stop near the hotel provides easy access to the railway station.
The landlady wasn't particularly friendly. SHE ignored us on one occasion when a simple greeting would have been nice.
