Mostly good!

A lovely place to stay. Lots of character with a lovely food menu. checking in was good with friendly staff. The room was big with everything you need. very comfortable bed. It was a warm night but a nice fan if a bit loud was supplied. Next morning went down for breakfast, this unfortunately was not great. We were told that there was a bit of a wait for the cooked breakfast so we helped ourselves to some cereal and juice. which was nice. The rest of the breakfast turned up at least 30 mins later which looked ok but was a cold so a bit of a shame.. Overall i liked it there and would recommend it ... just get down to breakfast at 8am sharp if you want a hot breakfast

Cooling fan noise.

The hotel room was comfortable but the continuous noise outside our window kept us awake. The room didn't have a/c and the hot weather meant we had to have the windows open and the cellar cooling fan was on all the time.

Very good, nice quiet location, clean and tidy, comfortable. Nice buffet and evening meals were good quality. Staff a bit rushed but very helpful and friendly. Pub is very smart with a nice touch being fresh dalias on the tables. Only negative is that parking could be a problem as it is on street and quite busy. Would definitely stay again as I like real ale and the beer festival was only a short walk away.

Too Noisy, you will not be able to sleep!

I do not recommend this accommodation if you want to sleep. The accommodation is currently next to a large outdoor fridge or freezer, as well as an air conditioning unit. The constant humming is incredibly loud. I even used earplugs but I could still hear the noise. When I mentioned this to the member of staff in the morning that I hadn’t slept at all, I was given an apology but not even a complimentary drink. We had to order the breakfast the night before and then were told in the morning that they had run out of mushrooms (there is a Tesco just down the road). The continental breakfast consisted of fruit juice, cereal and a yoghurt with a fruit component, not what I would consider a continental breakfast. The room was clean with a lovely shower, the bed was comfortable just such a shame about the noise. I would not recommend for anyone to spend a £100 on accommodation where you don’t get any sleep.

Lovely hotel

Arrived late as had an event after work. Service on arrival superb. Parking a nightmare around there as none at the hotel. Lovely large room with great facilities including coffee machine. My only feedback would be to have a dressing table area with mirror so be able to do your hair and makeup. Mattress was a little too hard for me but still managed to sleep ok. I do think 8am as the earliest you can get breakfast is too late for weekdays, so it was a rush trying to get something to eat before heading off at 8:30 when the food didn’t arrive until just after 8:15. Delicious breakfast though

Characterful place. Very friendly and helpful staff. It's a pub/restaurant/mini brewery with rooms. Good cooked breakfasts. Only problem is you can't usually park close by but there's a cheap long-stay car park about 10 mins walk away, same for the town centre.
