Excellent Amenities and Convenient Location

quality ingredientsattentive staffideal locationsmall portion
The inclusive breakfast impressed me, with quality ingredients and attentive staff. I especially liked the extra options provided, a good touch I noticed. The location proved ideal due to its close proximity to the notable Bolsover Castle. The room was super clean, a very important factor for me.
I observed that the food portions seemed small. The chicken serving I received looked smaller compared to other meat options. This meant I left feeling a bit hungry, so perhaps portion sizes should be reviewed.

the steep stairs to my room were a bit challenging. car parking space was definitely limited, fitting only two cars. i also found the landlord's demeanor to be less cute than expected.
