Really good value in a quiet area away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Unfortunately the village shop closed down a year or so ago so get your snacks en route :) Basic rooms but very clean, good parking and great value for money. Nice friendly pub nearby. Can be tricky to enter the rear car park in a larger vehicle but manageable. Could do with better access to drinking water is my only suggested improvement (e.g. free bottle of water or water fountains in the communal areas).

Comfortable and Clean

Clean room and comfortable bed, plenty of parking. Quiet. No food, but close to a pub serving meals. The only reason that it hasn't scored as excellent is that the self check in details only arrived after the time we should have left home in the afternoon to get there, and we chased them as we were concerned. Will stay again.

Extremely poor & below basic standards

Room extremely dated, carpet worn, dirty, cobwebs & dusty.stains on the walls, moldy bathroom. Didn’t get any sleep due to other guests banging doors & being noisy. Cheap room but cleanliness was extremely poor.

Amazing, cozy, friendly place to stay xx

We've been staying here for the last 2 years as its close to my sons exam centre, ( hes only 15) but its also far enough away that its very quiet and peaceful. We get a good nights sleep everytime we stay, 4 times last year 4 times this may/june. Amazing walking areas close by, a local Chinese next door, rooms are very spacious, very clean and tidy, shower rooms imagulate, always plenty of toilet roll and washing accessories ( which is always a bonus if you forget), towels also provided, bed linen is always clean and fresh, a new vending machine which has brilliant prices to next to.the main entrance. We feel secure within the building as its a code to get in the main building and then one into your own rooms. Lovely friendly staff on site if you catch them ad they're always busy xx

Hostess with the leastess

Everything was fine. Check in was easy. Messaged about no towels and the lady told me there was. There wasn’t. Bought my own and wasn’t bothered about there being none but the fact she assumed I was lying instead of just apologising. Easy mistake. Window was broken but she told me the button worked. It never hence the cobwebs and noise from gravel in the car park. Really nice b and b. Shame about attitude of the host when I asked about towels. A simple apology would have sufficed. Then she argued the window did shut it but it never. Everything else was of a decent standard. Said she would check the cameras about towels during a property reset and let me know. I assume they have and realised she was wrong hence no message as promised. If you get something wrong just own up to it. Would not have been a problem until I was told I was wrong. Left the receipt for the towels as a gift. Nice b and b wrong attitude.

Everything you need for an overnight stay. Very clean and spacious. Only thing let it down was the narrow opening to the side of the building to get to the Car Park especially returning late at night. Otherwise great facilities.

No staff on site, self checking process via SMS and access code. The only problem I would like to point out is that you can hear anything going around. There is no sound proofing of any kind, so you can hear guests coming and going, so I started to wake up at 4am as the first guest was leaving.
