Excellent Stay Near Local Attractions

spacious room nice view comfortable bed many sockets
The beautiful double with extra bed was spacious with a nice view. I could see the abbey over the rooftop and the hillside for the Tor (very excellent). The building at the back of the main house was nice and separate. The bed was comfortable, and there were many plug sockets extended to the bedside tables. It was handy having a fridge.
I noticed the venetian blinds in the room had some dust.

Easy parking is available in the gravel courtyard outside. This provides convenient access to the separate building at the back. The location at one end of the main high street is ideal for exploring.
