a mixed experience.

The location was acceptable.
I am not a firm believer in a service charge added to my bill. The Lamb Inn must take serious note that its 10% discretionary service charge awareness is missing from their menu.

the location was fantastic with convenient parking at the sister hotel. i enjoyed the powerful shower and the provided molton brown toiletries. a well-stocked tea, coffee, and biscuit tray was a nice touch. the beautiful garden with large tables and umbrellas offered a relaxing space.
The breakfast service could improve. The young staff seemed to lack direction. they were slow to clear tables and made errors with orders. more experienced supervision might enhance the dining experience.
