Couldn't meet the customer neefs

Had an enjoyable stay, one of my visits to Four in a Bed venues. It is in a lovely market town close to the battle sight. The parking is at the rear and you may miss it but as you pass between Dixie Arms and Red Lion the car park is immediately on your right; ample parking you just need to register at the bar. It is a locals pub and the staff were friendly. It could do with a freshen up in the bar, there is an Italian restaurant on one side of the venue. The banquette seating needs to be replaced or at least deep cleaned. The communal stairs leading to my room also needs a deep clean as it gives a poor first impression, and there is so much that is good about this place. My room was spotlessly clean, lovely linen and a very modern shower room in this historic coaching inn. A large room with two comfortable seats, an old open fire, tea/coffee and water in the room. The room had all I needed and was very comfortable and clean, which is why I note the carpet in the common area, it may mislead on first impressions. I ate in the evening, lovely good value menu all served in good portions. The breakfast is pre-order, full English with choice of eggs, and is huge. A really friendly welcome in the morning and all freshly cooked for me. I was sorry to leave any as it was delicious but it was made for those with bigger appetites. I make the notes on the need to refreshen some parts to manage expectation but I found this place exceptional value for location and accommodation.
