Great venue with live Music at the weekend

A lovely hotel which is masked by a traditional pub frontage. The rooms which are at the back of the pub in a purpose built buildings are spacious and clean. The pub has great live bands on every Friday and Saturday evenings.

Great location, right in the town centre. Very modern and clean. Easy to control the temperature of the room. Downside: low shower pressure and no parking. A council car park is a minute walk away which is fine but the app didn't work and I had to go and pay again after 6pm in order to pay for the morning.

The room is attached to a lovely pub, situated at the back of the beer garden. Not much noise and, and the garden is closed at 10pm to respect people staying there. The room was large with a huge bed. 32 inch TV with Sky channels. Lovely shower room. Breakfast is served in the pub in the morning. The full English was tasty and came with toast too. If I had any complaint it would be the bed was not the most comfortable but didnt stop my sleep. There was live music in the pub on the evening I stayed, everyone was very friendly.

Very clean and modern annexe behind the pub. Unexpectedly quiet. Hauling a heavy suitcase up the stairs to the bedrooms was a bit challenging, but I'd definitely stay there again. Breakfast options were rather limited, but if you like a fried breakfast you're catered for!

Clean rooms and friendly service. Basic accommodation for a fair price. Very popular and lively pub. Well sound proofed so the noise from the pub doesn’t interfere with your sleep on weekends. We stayed here for a wedding at the pavilion gardens and were happy with our choice

The accommodation was separate from the Pub, and there was no noise from the Live music on Saturday night. However, the 5 piece band was really good in my opinion. The atmosphere was lively, but the crowd was really friendly
