Our stay of one night could not have been more pleasant. A lovely hotel, very convenient and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Excellent. We will go back again.

I read various reviews and booked a table for dinner for four of us and wasn't disappointed. The hotel staff were very friendly and the food was good. Would recommend it for food but unable to comment on the rooms.
