I stayed here as a solo traveler for work - the room was clean and had everything i needed. I was even given an extra heater as it had turned cold but i didnt need to use it, the room was warm enough. All staff were lovely and very welcoming. The bar serves lovely food and pricing is reasonable. Would stay again next time Im in the area.

Beautiful clean room, friendly staff, and good food. I told them that I am gluten intolerant, when I booked my stay and there was no problem with providing me with food that I could safely eat. Very good breakfast, cereal, fruit, toast and a delicious full English with good quality ingredients.
