Beautifully restored building and tastefully decorated. A very warm welcome when I arrived. My room was spotlessly clean and the bed was so comfortable. Fresh milk in the fridge too! I was worried about noise being above a pub and on the 1st floor, however it had excellent soundproofing and I slept really well!
Nothing to complain about

Beautiful rooms , tea coffee and fresh milk in rooms. Lovely laundered bed linen and spotlessly clean
Just need to remember to open the drawer for the earplugs for the traffic noise which wasn’t too bad but I wish I had found them the night before !
