Royal Oak Farm Cottage

Nice hotel on the main street with good service and food. Breakfast was tasty, fine coffee, NYE dinner was also very delicious (perhaps even too much food). Staff are really lovely and accommodating. Parking is available, for free for hotel guests, either at the front or at the back of the hotel. Rooms are large, with comfy bed and pillows (perhaps the bed frame was a bit noisy); the decoration is a bit romantic or traditional. They allowed us to move to a room in the back, away from the traffic. WiFi works well, although if there are a lot of other guests, it stops working. The main drawbacks are the bathroom and the TV. On the one hand, I think the bath needs to be changed in to a shower (there is plenty of space for a large, pleasant one), the head shower needs replacing for sure... it's not even workable. On the other hand, only a couple of channels on TV worked, as most of them would get constant interference (maybe because they are freeview... not sure). But also, if you try using the USB slot, it doesn't work. For days when the sun goes at 4.30pm and it is really rainy outside, the TV is your best friend, so making sure it works is key.
