Charming hotel, lounge & brasserie. Front desk staff and restaurant staff were excellent. Breakfast was both delicious and plentiful. Our only complaint was the shower in our room had various temperatures that made it difficult to take a proper shower. Other than that, it was very good and would stay there again.

Staff were friendly, the room was freezing on arrival, the plug sockets didn't work either side of the bed which was frustrating as like to have phone next to me and charging. Wanted to be able to have a drink in the bar after the panto but no where to sit, breakfast took forever

Very nice, clean and comfortable room on the 1st floor at the front of the hotel overlooking the High Street. The double glazing meant we could enjoy the location while not being troubled by noise from the street. Great service from all the staff and a wonderful choice on the breakfast menu.
A Musical Box Antique. Just one of the great 'Oddments' in the hotel
