I arrived late on a snowy night. Heidi and Kat were particularly welcoming and went out of their way to ensure I had hot food and rest. The breakfast staff were excellent too.

Original twin room was too hot. The radiator couldn’t be turned down and would have been impossible for 2 people to sleep. The reception were able to move us to a different room which was brilliant

Lovely place to stay

We had a wedding nearby so needed a place to stay and came across this place. The service and staff have been so friendly, helpful and down to earth. The room we got was spacious and clean. It had an iron and ironing board that we requested already in the room, great touch. It had a rv, tea and coffee selection with a kettle and a complimenatry sparkling water. The bed was great, really comfortable with thick sheets and pillows. Despite being on the ground floor the windows kept the outside noise out. The bathroom had a shower and bath combo, where the shower head was super powerful! Nice complimentary toiletries too. We had dinner and breakfast there, both timesbwere lovely. The food and service was exceptional. The atmosphere in the restaurant was chilled and relaxing. The few negatives that we had were the toilet lid and seat didn’t stay up, so made it a bit of challenege to pee standing up. There wasn’t much shelf space for the toiletries, so had to workaround that. There is no air conditioning, which would have been nice as the room gets a vit hot now and again. But these are small negatives and can't fault the amazing service and place that this place is.

Nice Stay

The Hotel was a nice stay I used the restaurant and bar, food was good and the staff very polite. my room was comfortable and had the nice touch of tea, coffee and biscuits options with an additional 2 x packs of crisps and 2 x bottles of water. The bed could do with a new mattrass as there was no padding left in it, when sat on there you felt the base. Apart from that all was ok.

Staff and service at event were excellent. Food was superb. Paul on reception following morning was first class. Thank you. The room however was awful. V basic and interconnecting door meant it felt like we had two other people in our room with us. Expecting full refund asap.

The traffic was very heavy passed the front of the building were the table and chairs for sitting out were situated. There was no quiet drink sat there. I had to clean two seats before sitting down. A huge facility was across the busy roads were wagon and huge trailer went to unload produce. I noticed immediately all the table tops in the breakfast room had rings sticky rings were drinks had been placed. At first I thought it was in the pattern of the wood tables. I had to clean the table before I could use one to wait for our friends. As I mentioned in the other form this is a dog friendly pub. But the dogs were smelly from there walks and one sat each morning just simpering at its owners while they had breakfast. It was annoying and uncomfortable for the rest of the breakfast people not just ourselves. The coffee was awful too. Prices a bit too high.

Lovely stay but not quite as photographed

The rooms were clean and nicely decorated but there was wear and tear I.e marks on the walls. Bed was so comfy !!! The bathroom was not as pictured for a deluxe room. More just a standard white bathroom like premier inn etc. That was a bit of a disappointment but didn’t really affect our stay. Over all it was a nice stay, the food and the staff were lovely and we would stay again if we were in the area
