Lovely place but room had drainage smell

The hotel and restaurant are both really nice, as are the modern rooms. We had a standard double room on a Saturday night which was very reasonably priced at £70 (room only)..but the meals for both dinner and breakfast were not only really great but also very reasonably priced. The only snag was that our room had a very smelly bathroom (drains) which at times was over powering. I hope they get that sorted.

Friendly staff & a clean place

Our double room was ground level & small, the walls seemed paper thin as one could here the slightest noise from outside the door & the footsteps from the room above there were no shelves in bathroom to put toiletries out so it did feel a little cramped but we only stayed for 2 nights so no big deal the bed was really comfy & the room was very clean , we didn’t use any facilities as we were visiting family so ate & drank elsewhere

Adequate room

The room was adequate for a single night stay, felt a bit cramped for overall space. First time in this area and did not have much to choose from.
