Nice hotel situated behind a pub. Room spacious and clean and relatively modern. Pub is really nice for dinner and breakfast, but a bit pricey for what it is. Free parking

Cleaner must have had a day off .

Where do I start , I don’t think this hotel should be open until the planned refurb . It’s disgusting , diy paint job , blood on pillow , rusty heater , shower had hair over and the plastic casing broken . Last but not least the sink plug hole has something left from previous hotel visitors.

One of the most quietest rooms we have stayed in. It was what we asked for! Breakfast was let down by items left off plated food and when pointed out unfortunately staff felt it was acceptable to not be truthful by saying we were ordering off an old menu! Which was not true the menus we were given were exactly the same as their on line menus. Needless made up excuse. Needless to say for our 3 day stay we didn't eat at restaurant again.
