I didn't stay so can't speak about the rooms, but stopped into the restaurant for beakfast. Amazing breakfast bap with bacon and sausages with hash browns - loved it! I don't usually like coffee drinks but the latte here was so good I had two. :) The staff are so lovely and friendly - making it an awesome place to have breakfast on a Saturday morning! Will certainly return X X x
Excellent location, great room, clean, tidy. Just what we had hoped for. Except for the noise created by other guests. Spoiled and otherwise great stay. If you're offered room 115, decline it!
Brilliant staff. Friendly welcoming. Nothing is too much trouble. Warm clean and cosy rooms Excellent meals in bistro and huge breakfast 10 Will be staying again
Just spent 5 days at this wonderful dog friendly hotel. Staff are fantastic, always willing to help and happy. Breakfast was great with lots of choice. Dinner menu had lots of different dishes and all the food was delicious. Everywhere was clean and the rooms very comfortable. Teddy the dog was spoilt and had lots of fuss. Would definitely stay again
Wonderful room for three days over the weekend. We were attending a family wedding in the locality. The bar service was excellent, staff were attentive, informative and exceptionally polite. Our room was spacious and contained everything we required for the duration of the stay. Rooms were very clean and the service was amazing.
A cosy, friendly hotel with amazing service (and a great breakfast). I booked an Executive Single, but there was plenty of room. Comfortable bed, clean bathroom, and a kettle - all your need! I've knocked a star off as the room was super warm (to the point of needing the window open all the time). Noise from next door's bathroom and the corridor was noticeable, but no more so than many hotels. I would definitely stay again.
Lovely little hotel. Pretty and well situated. Obviously very popular as it was very busy. Would happily recommend it to others.
Wonderful hotel. All the staff from housekeeping. The Bar & restaurant & reception. Made our stay enjoyable and relaxing. The food and service in the restaurant was excellent. Wide choice of drinks . The room was clean and the beds comfortable. The hotel is 15 minutes walk to the centre,and close to a regular bus route as well
