+ Great town centre location. Lots of character. Car Park to rear (about 20 spaces). Brilliant breakfast both hot and cold. Saturday night entertainment. Friendly staff.
− Unfortunately, there is no lift and you could be on 3rd floor like we were so 6 flights of stairs. The hotel is next to the church and the clock starts to chime at 7.15, and every 15 minutes thereafter. We were there on a Sunday morning and the bell ringers went through their full repertoire from about 9.00 am so don't hope for a long sleep in.
