We had roooms in the converted stables and they were great. The accessible room was perfect for someone with poor mobility. The food was good, but the service in the restaurant was extremely slow, waiting almost an hour after ordering for cereal and croissants for breakfast. However, the staff were lovely and very apologetic.

Very pleasant staff. Our courtyard room was comfortable and surprising very quiet - would book the same room again. Rather drab outside but …… Tourist information was extremely helpful. This was virtually opposite so we were able to learn more about the town and have a short informed walk around .

Probably should have done a little more investigating RE the hotel as I'm not from the area and didn't realise it was positioned above a pub of the same/similar name. As a family with 2 youth children (4 and 6 years old) checking in on a Saturday evening and hoping to get some rest after a long day, we were met with a live band and a lot of noisy punters, which is absolutely fair as it's a pub after all on a Saturday night. Although, after the music shut down there was a lot of stomping around upstairs by the rooms, either from other hotel residents or the noisy lot downstairs, who knows. Just a heads up to other families to perhaps look elsewhere if you're passing through and need some decent rest. Otherwise, staff were great, room was otherwise cosy and quite large, which is always nice, and the breakfast was really decent as well. Can't fault that at all.
