As ever a lovely stay at the Birch Hotel. I was staying on business so a good breakfast choice as well as evening dining is important and the Birch scores highly on both. There is plentiful parking, a great bar, the team are very welcoming and the rooms are spacious and very well appointed. Would happily recommend for business or leisure. As a lone female traveller I felt safe and welcomed here.
