Really good stay near Newbury

ground floor roomgood breakfasthelpful staffgarden access
The room exceeded my expectations. It included shampoo and lotion. My ground floor room had a door to the garden. Breakfast was SO good. The staff were helpful (they always had a smile). I look forward to staying again soon.
My only slight disappointment was that the car park was full on arrival, but i found a place after 5 minutes.
