The hotel is ideally situated in the heart of an ancient market town with a lot of character, making it easy to explore all local attractions. The rooms are beautifully appointed with lovely bath products and a rolltop bath, but some may prefer en-suite showers over baths. The service provided was top-notch, reflecting the owners' high ethics. The dining experience at 28 Marketplace across the square was delightful with signature meats offered. Overall, a charming location with some room preferences and excellent service.
