Checked in after a day out, sadly the bar area and restaurant was cold although heating was on, we were shown to our room which had an overpowering smell of lavender, assume cleaning products (so good sign), room was cosy with standard size bed & good powerful shower but no hot water from sink tap. Our food from the restaurant was tasty. During the night we found the room to be noisy from other guests using bathrooms etc or coming and going as no sound proofing in place. Staff were friendly. Free car parking across the road and good location for several attractions in the area.

Great value stay for us - rooms are warm and clean. You can hear some noise from guests next door but for the budget, it’s excellent. The staff were really lovely and friendly. Car park is easy to park in and just opposite the pub.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room was cosy and tidy, with a lovely blanket and felt quite fresh. The bed was a standard double size, which fit the room well. The staff were friendly and very helpful, they let me use their charger when i forgot mine. The food was delicious and good sized portions (the chocolate fudge cake was huge! Could have been a bit warmer, but very tasty all the same!) The bar was pretty and comfortable and the breakfast was freshly cooked and of ample portio s, plus cereals and toast available in addition to the full english. It was a lovely stay and i would go there again if i am in the area.
