Really enjoyed our stay. Check in was sorted in 2 minutes, staff were polite and helpfull. We ate at the hotel both nights and drank in the bar. Prices were reasonable for in the hotel. Hotel itself could be said to be a little dated but it is a historic older building. We liked it and would book this hotel again. Hope to return in near future.

The location was excellent for the mountain railway. Very busy at breakfast, but the food was good. Attention to detail in the room cleaning, window open and very thick layer of dust and grime around it, also the bathroom fan runs 24/7!
