The location, facilities and amenities all made the two day visit worthwhile. The rooms were clean and tidy with facilities to wake up with ie tea making facility! Breakfast was hot and fresh and the choice of breakfast goodies was good. Evening meal was ok and filled a hunger need but if there was a reason for not 5 stars it would be this and the lack of ale at the bar. But other than that it would be my first choice next time visiting the area.

Done a early check in as parking is limited after paying for the early check in and parking was informed that they was not doing any lunch as there was a football team stay and was told to order a delivery which I did then went to the bar to order a drink and had to wait nearly 15 minutes as there was only one person doing the bar and reception when my delivery turned up went to my room to eat my lunch later got ready went down for a drink and hopefully some dinner to be told they wasn’t doing dinner finished our drink and checked out didn’t stay the night so wasn’t a good New Year’s Eve
