A lovely room, the James Herriot room, very quaint and cottage like. Immaculately clean, lovely bathroom. Our meal was delicious,... More

The room is predominantly shocking pink with dark wood beams and black wardrobe/dressing table with huge television. The bed is so comfortable. Attention to detail is fabulous with a silver ‘lip shaped’ telephone, love hearts mugs/tea tray (complete with hot chocolate/teas/coffees and home... More

I was surprised by being taken there by my very special boyfriend in December... More
