poor view hard bed
the breakfast was alright (nothing too special).
The room i had faced the back, so the view was poor. the bed was quite hard, and i didn't sleep well for the entire duration. also, the tv remote did not work. I asked for a replacement, but nothing happened .

mixed feelings about the stay
late check-in small towel
the village inn had a short menu with tasty pub grub, i have to admit. the steak and ale pie hit the spot.
I found the check-in time too late. 4Pm is not ideal. i also observed that staff at the bar seemed to favor locals. the bath towels provided were too small. Bath sheets would have been better.
