Decent place

Decent place, rooms quite dated. Had a few problems with faulty electrics and heating, but staff did a great job sorting them out. Nice and quiet room. Good pub too. Overall, not bad.

Comfortable room but very bright.

I thought it was very good value for money. Comfortable beds and sizeable room in a good location. My only gripe was that the curtains didn’t keep out any light so my toddler was up before 5am resulting in a poor nights sleep for me.

Lovely overnight stay

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was like a small chalet and comfortable for an overnight stay. There was everything we needed and we were really happy about how dog friendly the hotel was. Our dog enjoyed sausages for breakfast and the full English was very tasty.
