Can't fault it, except the bed wasn't very comfortable so had to dock a star for that (a good nights sleep is the main thing I want from a b&b). Full English breakfast is awesome, best I've had and there were plenty of other options. Staff couldn't be nicer or more helpful.

Brilliant as it's only 10 minutes walk to The National Railway Museum, not too far to the city centre either and such a nice relaxing place to stay. Downside is no onsite parking but there is a car park just round the corner ( Nunnery Lane) £12 per 24hrs, just renew online with PayByPhone app on your phone. Remember when comparing prices to add £12 per day for parking to equate.

Excellent, will go to launch there in preference to many other places. The museum is worth a visit and the chapel is very relaxing. Yes, very good.

Nice, quiet, affordable rooms. Really nice staff. Seemed to be plenty of space even though I was in a small single room.
