"The only word I can think of is, "Perfect"! The staff are approachable, friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was great, with an extensive menu to chose from. I cannot think of any negatives and will definitely be staying there again. It may appear to be a bit pricier than other alternatives in the area, but on balance, what you get from staying at The White Hart, I think is great value for money.
