I had a fantastic stay at a pub with rooms in this town. As soon as I walked through the door, I was made to feel welcome by the manager, Tony. The bar had a cozy atmosphere with a log fire, and the young barmen were polite and respectful. The bedroom I stayed in was clean, cozy, and well-configured, with a small but excellent ensuite bathroom. The location of the hotel was ideal, right in the town center and within walking distance of shops, restaurants, and the train station. The staff were helpful, friendly, and engaging, making my stay even more enjoyable. The hotel also had a great courtyard and excellent food. Parking was easily accessible with a car park adjacent to the rear courtyard.
