comfortable bed attentive staff superb eggs clean bedroom
i stayed two nights. The en-suite bedroom was clean, i found the bed VERY comfortable. Mark and Susie were attentive when my train was late. The scottish salmon and scrambled eggs, i ate on the second morning, were really SUPERB.
the floorboards in the corridors and on the main stairs were EXTREMELY creaky.
