Lovely little hotel with great staff, very helpful and friendly. We stayed in Taynton room which in my opinion could do with a little TLC and definitely would benefit from a new mattress. Also, be aware that if booking this room there is a very narrow steep staircase to climb to access the room so would definitely not be suitable for someone with mobility issues. That said the room was clean and a very good size. Food was great and excellent quality breakfast produce.
