Lovely location of this pub. Super handy for the train station (though there are two lovely pubs just outside it). But disappointed in the atmosphere (none) and the service. Warm wine.

Staff were lovely and friendly on arrival and throughout our stay. Rooms were clean and beds very comfortable. Nice extra touches when we first got in the room such as complimentary toiletries, ear plugs and sweets. Only negative was the bathroom had mould on the ceiling but this didn't affect or stay.
