cozy room and great food

friendly staffcosy roomsslippery steps
the room was nice, bar area was good. the staff were super friendly, and i appreciate the organisation of a dinner table even though the place was fully booked. rooms were very clean and cosy.
steep outside steps lead up to the room, and they were slippery. puddles were present on the steps. i think ground floor room allocation would have made more sense with dogs.
