Fantastic owners. Really helpful and great with awkward customers (me).
Prices are pretty good. Especially because of it's location. Definitely one of those hotels that I would consider coming back to... as long as they would have me,
The rooms are spacious without being overwhelming. Ensuite is compact and usable. The bed we had was sublime. Comfortable is an understatement. Road noise can be intrusive as our room was at the front of the property. But after a while, we barely noticed it. The view out the windows is beautiful. The river Yeo is literally on the doorstep. And a large park

Really quaint family run hotel. Very clean and well set up. Our loft room is small and headroom very restricted. The en suite was small and the shower poor, very loud, not very hot on really low pressure. Lack of car park can be an issue too. Great for a couple of nights though.

OK place, bit pricey for what's on offer, but it was all that was available. Very short walk into town, easy parking.
