Nice old pub building in the centre of the small town. Down stairs arras were very nice with a cosy and traditional atmosphere. On checking in was advised kitchen was closed for 2 of the 3 nights. Breakfast (American pancakes) was very poor. Room was ok but tired around the edges. Very few power points and signs of a long term leak from shower which is always off putting. A REALLY noisy AC/ chiller unit below the bedroom window was pretty annoying Not a bad place, but at £145 a night i expected more.

Very Disappointing

I had a very disappointing experience at the White Hart. We did have a pleasant check in experience and a nice meal (we chose to eat here for ease) and even though the room was VERY small, my fiancée and I were only really using the room to sleep in so we were okay with it. Upon check-out however, shocking customer service ruined our experience. I had made a genuine mistake and made the reservation on the app for one, rather than two and when I checked out, I was charged an extra £30 - an amount that made the total cost of the room unreasonable. The “manager” (I didn’t get her name, but with what sounded like an Eastern European accent) flatly refused to listen to my explanation that it was a simple mistake, passively aggressively saying “oh, another person making a mistake”, claiming that the £30 was for an extra breakfast….that we weren’t even staying for!! Given the very small room, the refusal to listen to reason and that we weren’t even staying for breakfast, charging an extra £30 when we had even spent money to eat in the hotel for dinner was absolutely shocking. We went back inside the hotel and ordered food to take away just to try and justify the added cost. The “manager” should be embarrassed at her treatment of guests and hotel ownership should rethink a blanket policy when faced with common sense and customers who have already paid them significant money to dine there. I guess the customer isn’t always right. Avoid.

Hotel ok- room small but very clean and had everything we needed. My main problem with the hotel was the food- we ate there 2 nights out of our 3. First time I ordered fish pie and it was not very nice at all in fact I left half of it which is unlike me. What fish there was was mushy and stuck to the sides of the dish. Second time Peri Peri chicken breast which I couldn’t finish as it was pink in places. I mentioned it to the waitress who agreed and said she would speak to the chef. No one came back to me about it.

This is a Grade 2 listed building and it is definately quirky. We had a king bed on the top floor and the floors were uneven and walls had very few straight lines. To get to room 12 you have to go up lots of stairs so if you have heavy luggage you might want to request a lower floor. The staff were all lovely and helpful and the meals we had there were excellent. There is public parking just around the corner.
