The food in the restaurant was 10\/10, superb, we had the soup and the rib of beef. We don&#8217;t normally have soup but is was superb. The rib was really tasty, the gravy was rich and served with vegetables and for pudding we had home made sticky pudding again 10\/10. Stayed in room 8 which was extremely clean and well presented, bed was really comfy. I book around 60 hotels per annum and this place is going into in my top 3, ever. Highly recommend if you are in the area.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8211; Michael<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;Couldn\u2019t fault the room or the staff.
