Wonderful room, nice evening meal, but no one asked me how the food was or if I wanted another drink or see the desert menu, so I just paid & went back to my room.

The rooms were big and clean. Tea/Coffee making facilities, plus 2 packs of biscuits, nice touch! Only complain would be that for the money the full english breakfasts did not include teas/coffees. And, the portions were very small, more like kids portions! We would definitely go there again but not eat there..

Comfortable stay

Excellent location. Easy to find. Got plenty of car parking spaces. The room is very spacious. Great shower. Room is clean and well equipped. Good to have a bottle of water in the room. Kate at the reception is kind, friendly and helpful. Fabulous breakfast. The hotel is quiet and has beautiful mountain view. However, the bed seems to be a bit too soft.

Wonderful one night stay

We had a wonderful one night stay as a small family (couple with a toddler). The staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful. The room was spotless. We had a family room with views of the valley. The beds were comfortable and the coffee machine was a lovely touch. Plenty of space as well. We had both dinner and breakfast at the adjoining restaurant, both were very good quality and tasty. It was very busy for saturday night people having their dinner... its obviously very popular, and for good reason. We would definitely recommend. And would return again.
