Whole place was very clean and well kept, could not fault the breakfast. Staff very friendly and extremely helpful. Overall a fantastic place to stay, thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Channels Hotel is located at a quiet area and the rooms are very nice. This time my room was at the end of building near to country road, which generated some noise.
The breakfast is delicious and good variety.

This hotel is located at a very rural area, which is extremely quiet.
There is plenty of parking.
My accommodation was stylish and clear with underfloor heating. The bathroom had a Walk in shower and bath tub as well. The breakfast options were brilliant.
