“My stay revealed a wonderfully preserved building that feels genuinely welcoming, a sentiment amplified by the attentive staff and the pleasant Adnams touches like complementary local brews. The rooms are quite comfortable, and the central location makes exploring the town and its immediate surroundings effortless, even if the car park shows its age. I particularly appreciated the quality of both the included breakfast and the evening meals, making it a solid choice for a visit.”
