house keeping woke me up at 8am twice, very early, and i was annoyed by it! the breakfast was a joke with bacon cooked twice and harder than pork crackling. also, the pictures on the bedroom wall seemed to mock leaders like admiral lord nelson, that was really upsetting for me.

The breakfast staff was lovely and helpful. I cannot praise them enough for helping me enjoy a really good breakfast (especially the bacon!).

i stayed here to visit family, but i was disappointed. i booked a room needing a walk in shower. there was no shower i could use. i drove home, not refreshed. (all those able bodied youngsters clearly required walk in showers!!! ).
