“Stepping into this historic inn feels like a genuine step back in time, with character evident in the beamed ceilings and pub atmosphere. Rooms, though traditional and sometimes showing their age, are comfortable and well-appointed, with the courtyard accommodations providing a quiet escape and the street-facing ones a cottage-like charm. The generous, full English breakfast is a solid start to the day, and the reasonable pricing, especially considering its prime location for local exploration, makes it a sensible choice.”
