central location quality ingredients secure garden
The location was central. It was about a ten-minute walk to the main attractions. The breakfast had a good selection with quality ingredients. I was able to store my bicycle safely in their garden (very useful for my Cotswold Sportife ride).
The room decor was a bit outdated.
