wonderful room and great food!

decorated table friendly staff
The food was excellent, especially the decorated birthday dinner table. This was a pleasant surprise.. the staff was friendly and very helpful. i really enjoyed having access to the lovely large room for breakfast with lovely views of the huge garden. The room was nice and clean too.
The bed made a noise when i moved, and the floor in the room creaked.. i could not open the window, so the room smelled a little musty. It was disappointing.
