"For us good location The word Cosy in the description means small. What surprised me was when I was booking that there appeared plenty of rooms, If this was correct I am surprised that we were not upgraded. My logic is surely you want to encourage us to come back. Unfortunately we had the bins one side and the car park the other. It’s clean but we did have to remove the air freshener as it over power your senses. We stayed here two years ago. We remembered the breakfast. Still good value. Unfortunately our memory might be fading as I thought the portions were bigger last time. But that’s happened almost every where we have stayed."
