The property was conveniently located, had parking and a comfy bed. However for the price the room could be made better. Little things like a bedside lamp and shelving in the bathroom would’ve made for a more comfortable and convenient, instead of having to do things like have a shower in the tiny shower then walk in and out if the bathroom to access the rest of my toiletries as there was no where in the bathroom to put anything not even a bar of soap.

I was there for 10 days but wasn’t told at booking stage that the hotel and restaurant were closed for that period and beyond. So no food, no Bar etc. The Manageress, Marielle, however, was outstanding. She helped and could not be faulted. The younger staff weren’t so good. I’ve rated the overall experience as average, but Marielle as 5 star! Thanks Marielle for “saving the day”

Thank you so much Stuart for taking the time to write your review, I am so pleased I was able to 'save the day' for you. I am also sorry we didn't advise you of the closure of our beautiful bar and restaurant. I really hope you return for a 100% positive experience both in the accommodation and restaurant. Kind regards Marielle

We were in the 'other' accommodation out the back. Rooms without views, next to the ventilation or refrigeration system for the kitchen. Slightly misleading not to show pictures of the actual accommodation on the outside that is behind the nice period building at the front. Suitable for people on budgets or young families but not what I expected

We are sorry that your expectations were not met whilst staying with us. We certainly do not try to 'mislead' our guests with our accommodation. We do have actual internal pictures of all our rooms on our website. The external pictures are of the front and rear of the main building. We do have three different levels of accommodation here based on budget, family and luxury. These are priced accordingly. We would love for you to return and perhaps book one of our beautiful 'Heritage' rooms, and even dine in our restaurant 'Empire Dining'.

Roomsand location were perfect. It was a bit odd that the kettle was kept outside of the room, and the bike storage was unsigned and difficut to find on arrival as the reception desk is unmanned after hours.

Hi Victoria. Thank you for taking the time to write a review. So pleased you enjoyed your stay. We have the coffee station in the lounge area for the use of several rooms in the Heritage wing so as not to clutter your rooms. We are also in the process of installing better signage for the bike room and laundry. Hopefully will be in on your next visit. RegardsMarielle
