“This coaching inn, centrally situated in Horncastle, strikes me as a place with character, even if some areas show their age with missing finishing touches. The staff's helpfulness, particularly with early check-in and the excellent cooked-to-order breakfast, stands out. While some may find the rooms a bit tired, the building has an authentic, quirky charm.”
