The Black Swan - The Inn Collection Group

10/10 Excellent

"It was very nice, only criticism I’d have is we arrived 10 mins late for breakfast which we’d paid for, so were told they missed it 😔they hadn’t even finished clearing away and considering they serve food all day, I’d have thought they could of offered us something rather than recommend a cafe by the river, so a bit disappointing on that score."
