We always stay here when visiting family. The hotel is well situated for our purpose. The room options are varied as we sometimes need two bedrooms to accommodate grandchildren. The staff are always friendly, and the room rates are always very favourable.

Comfy bed, powerful shower, quiet room. Breakfast and dinner were good. Only complaint was that the carpet in the bedroom could do with a deep clean as it was visibly grubby in places

Staff were lovely, check in was smooth, and we were given clear directions as well as wifi information. Breakfast was cook to order and very enjoyable, with a variety of options. There were a lot of dead flies on the bathroom window sill. Dust and soap scum built up on the shower, which smelt awful every time you use it, as well as dirsty marks on the door and radiator. Beds super uncomfortable. The bedroom itself seemed clean, just not the bathroom.

Phoned ahead a couple of days beforehand as and for a top floor room at a quiet end of the corridor but unfortunately we got given a middle floor room with a herd of elephants up above us. The room itself though dated was cosy, comfortable and spacious and we have stayed a couple of times before so knew what to expect it’s just a shame the stompers above made so much noise.

Wonderful, friendly overnight stay

Hotel looked a bit daunting from the outside as it was just myself and my daughter staying. But i couldn't have been more wrong. Staff were friendly and gave us all the infomation i needed efficiently. Hotel was spotless. Room was exceptionally clean and comfortable with everything we needed. Breakfast was great. all the usual options and with full english, veggie and continental options included as well, and waffles with cream for my daughter. Using local sausages and eggs.. fabulous
