This family run hotel is staffed by extremely friendly and efficient people. Some decor may appear dated but only because it is original to the building and adds to its enormous charm.

I had my retirement party here last weekend and it was fantastic. The hotel created a tasting menu, with several courses each having appropriate wines.
