Over night stay

Second stay at The Bay Horse Inn. Room was comfortable but warm. Breakfast was good served by very friendly staff. Only grumble would be that they started to clean the room before we'd left which made us feel a little unwelcome. Apart from that our stay was comfortable and exactly what we needed for an overnight befor heading on holiday

Got fined for parking

I was fined for parking at the hotel. It said free parking on Hotels.com. I wasn’t asked for my registration when I checked in. I complained to the owner who said he would get it sorted. I sent him the fine which he asked me to do and he then said that’s the best you’re going to get. What a joke.

Excellent stay. I have been to many places and stayed in many hotels but this hotel has perhaps the best bed! Super clean rooms. The only reason I didnt give five stars for facilities is that they do not have a hair dryer and the water pressure of the shower wasn't great. The staff did look into it and I didnt expect it to be an immediate fix so in the bigger picture, that was a trivial problem; it doesn't take away from how brilliant the establishment is.
