The hotel is a little gem especially if attending the races as hotels in town are overpriced

Very friendly, good tasty food, relaxing bar area to enjoy a meal and drink, plenty of parking spaces, a most enjoyable breakfast of poached eggs on bacon and sourdough toast, so much nicer than just the normal cooked breakfast.
