Traveller's Rest Inn

8/10 Good
"Location of the hotel very good, room was clean and well appointed, the evening meal was tasty and the service excellent. The problem came the next morning, cooked breakfast took an hour to arrive, without sausage. No real explanation until it arrived and no genuine apology. There was also lipstick on the glass that I had pored orange juice into and when I pointed this out all I got was oh dear and a giggle.we also wanted to leave early and this waiting around kept us back, . disappointing end to our stay."
