Friendly staff, very nice room with coffee machine and complementary drinks in the fridge. We had nice dinner and breakfast in the pub, was convenient for us to stay one night in the area. The only downside was the sofa bed was not so comfortable and really squeaky! But the kids slept ok and we appreciated being able to stay with our 2 kids in the room.

This hotel was a bit disappointing. The communal areas are nice, the rooms were quite plain. We were in a dog friendly family room that did not feel very clean or fresh. Bed was comfortable though. Most of the staff here are nice and friendly but all are very inefficient. Multiple staff seem to be mulling around, service is extremely slow.

Great stay!

Excellent staff and welcome, room is lovely and clean, everything you want from a nice hotel/inn. We stayed in a family room, which was nice and spacious, my girls said the sofa bed was comfy to sleep on, and we found the bed good too. Pub food was nice, we had dinner one night and breakfast was part of our stay, food itself was great, but menu could offer more variety.

I have been staying at this hotel for years, on a regular basis. It used to be wonderful. However, over the last 18 months, things have changed and not for the better. Prices have increased, but what we get has decreased, from what is in the room, to breakfast, to service. The efficient staff all seem to have left and there appears to be a major gap in the employees' training. Hotel guests are treated as poor relations, always inconvenienced when there is a function in the pub. There isn’t one aspect, whether it be value for money or service that is a patch on what it was. If you are staying for the first time, then you may be content, but trust me, it should be so much better. I will not be back!.
