Perfect after a day in the hills
Convenient location. Friendly staff, breakfast was good, the bar was lovely in the evening. Areas of the hotel are looking slightly dated, but then it is a historic building. Would recommend and would stay again.

Flushing of toilet
Excellent service and breakfast. The flush of the toilet could be improved by either replacing it or providing clear user instructions. In order for the flush to work one had to push the button until the flush operated, this took about 6 to 8 seconds!!
