Fantastic Hotel With Classic Charm!

victorian architectureperiod featuresfour-poster bedclassic style
The Victorian architecture of the hotel is fine! I adored the period features. The room with the four-poster bed was gorgeous! The decor has a classic style. The entire room was super tidy. Breakfast was fantastic. Staff was wonderfully helpful.
The car park entrance felt precarious, there was a rusting walkway with a drop on each side, so caution is advisable!
