Room was very very small for 2 people, hottest room in the building, fans inadequate. Staff were good, it was a hot day and despite this we feel our comments were not taken seriously.

Hotel and staff were good, where we stayed though was not. We booked through you assuming we were staying at the hotel, wrong, they put us across the main busy junction, through the car park separate from the hotel, in a converted shed. The old sash window in the bedroom couldn’t shut properly so the noice from the main rd just a few feet away was dreadful. We had virtually no sleep at all. We go away monthly to different hotels and everyone has been great, we’ll not through you anymore. The staff were informed but nothing came from it. We were shattered driving home. Be careful if you book there and make sure you stay in the hotel, not across the rd.

Lovely hotel, great service and staff.

The staff were very helpful and attentive which made it a pleasant stay. We had a lovely meal in the restaurant and the breakfast was good so no issues with the food. It was my birthday so i had my main and dessert for free too as they have a birthday offer. The hotel itself has character and charm, we upgraded to a superior double on the top floor, there are no lifts but we were made aware of that when booking. The room itself was clean and had some nice touches, including a welcome note from housekeeping. The room was at the back of the hotel so we could hear the kitchens and it had no view, but thats just the layout of the building. The only issue was the heat: the bathroom towel rail was very hot and made it too hot to leave the door shut. It would have burned you if you put your hand on it so is a safety issue. We were not able to rurn it off either.The radiators on the landings were also on full blast even though we had good sunny weather. Otherwise it was a good hotel and we would return.
