A truely charming Inn

Amazing find. Charming throw back to the Victorian era. Staff were helpful and friendly and the room still had the charm of an early twenty century Inn. The location was great and close to all the downtown shopping. I'll be back!

8/10 Very good

Great hotel for the money.

Great location, car park was big and spacious. Reception were excellent, really helpful and full of good advice - especially the guy with the exceptional beard! Hotel is a little tired but has lots of original features. The bar is lively and is well used by licals and rhe restaurant did great breakfast options. All the major downtown sights are within 15-20 minutes walk. Excellent value for money. One word of warning, the horse and carriage rides clip clop their way right past the front of the hotel so if you are a light sleeper you might request a room at the back.
Justin, 2-night trip

Excellent stay

Hotel staff were very welcoming and willing to offer help. It is located in a quiet, convenient location for the main tourist area. Hotel has character, not a modern box. Breakfast and evening meals were good.

Staff was very friendly and helpful and always willing to answer questions. The room was very nice and the hotel had many interesting items.
