Local microbrewery pub Hand in Hand is just around the corner, offering real ale and a lively atmosphere.

A full English breakfast is cooked to order each morning using thick bacon, proper sausages, and fresh eggs, with vegan and gluten-free options available upon request. The dining room features eclectic decor with unusual crockery and cutlery, and guests can watch their meal prepared on the range oven. Breakfast includes quality coffee, orange juice, toast, and a choice of continental items.

Hosts Suzie and Telly personally welcome each guest, offering local recommendations for vegan and vegetarian restaurants and helping with parking arrangements. The property's limited capacity-just eight rooms-ensures an intimate stay with direct interaction from the owners. The Twenty One holds the AA Gold Star Award, a recognition of its high standards in comfort and service.
