Room was fantastic. The hotel was in need of a tidy up. Reception is a mess, staff disheveled, driveway and parking were great, but you’ll run into workers in uniform and aprons smoking out the back door of the kitchen. Location was fantastic and walkable to the towns other hotels, pubs and shops. Skip the breakfast, even if included. Still a good stay.

We not expecting to find mould. I fell in reception , tripped over some door stops, I reported to reception, was not asked how I was but offered some ice, no mention of an accident book to record the incident in. the door stops were still in same position the following day. Tge mattresses were extremely uncomfortable, offering no support, sheets loosely on ved, not fitted, so moved about wgen slept in.A very disappointing and uncomfortable stay
