Admiring stay at hotel

clean roomfluffy towelsgood ingredientssquishy chairs
I find my recently appointed room very clean. The bathroom included plentiful, fluffy towels. The views from the hotel impressed, especially during breakfast, that had good ingredients. The lounge provided squishy chairs.
The car park was a trek, and spaces felt a little insufficient for a completely full hotel.
Service

The receptionist had great efficiency during check in at 2 p.m., which was earlier than the official time. After checking out, I had an option for leaving my car in the car park while exploring the local priory. The staff were very attentive.
