Key Offerings
A menu that highlights interesting and often overlooked cuts from local suppliers, accompanied by craft ales and quality wines. Special extras are crafted for occasions such as New Year, with plenty of space for live music and events.
The room was very clean and of a high standard. It looks like it has been upgraded recently. Breakfast offered many choices. The waiter was friendly and helpful.
The rooms were too small. I was in a family of four, so we had two rooms. The rooms were cold when we entered them and it took a while for the heating to kick in (this was a slight inconvenience).
