We had a lovely stay, the restaurant and breakfast room were excellent. Bobby's coffee bar were was a bit overpriced for a scone, nearly £5 and it wasn't fresh so choose more wisely as there were lovely cakes on display. Our bed was a bit too firm for our liking, no give at all. Aside from that we thoroughly enjoyed.
