    Lovely hotel, really nice atmosphere and very clean. The food in the restuarant was excellent and really good value for money.

    The staff were brilliant, especially a Welsh chap who seemed to be everywhere and was so patient and helpful! [So sorry I didn't get your name].. Customer Service was first class. Nothing was too much trouble. The attention to detail was superb....

    Although the hotel is over 100 years old it remains very comfortable and presentable. In particular the breakfast was tremendous. It was great value for money.
