One night stay

2nd time at this hotel. Reason for staying there again was because it was so lovely first time. Bad move! Arrived Friday night, had a lovely meal and walk around village. Pretty busy. Back to hotel for a drink..sat in the lounge which was empty to begin with. Started to fill up very quickly, and the noise was so bad we went to our room. Room not in best state of decor, and looked like a duster hadnt been near it for some time. Noise from the bar below was terrible, and was impossible to sleep. Even when the place eventually went quiet, guests were obviously wandering the corridors making a noise. Breakfast was lovely. As we went for our car later, we heard some other guests who were also leaving, complaining about the noise and lack of sleep! We wont be back.

Comfy bedroom

We had a very spacious bedroom/bathroom with a lovely comfortable bed so a really good night’s sleep. The breakfast menu was quite varied and I did see people ordering “off menu” which is a bonus. I ordered the vegetarian breakfast which was mostly tasteless but my husband had the English breakfast which he enjoyed. My one and only grumble was that when I asked to check in I was told quite abruptly “ you can’t check in before three”. I do understand they have their instructions but first Impressions do count. Hopefully their new members of staff will eventually learn to add a few words of welcome or explanation.

Comfortable and well appointed

Good one night stay after a family gathering in the area. Good standard of accommodation and attentive service. Breakfast included. Parking extra in one of the town's carparks but places available in the market square opposite.

Perfect location

Perfect location and we loved the spacious rooms around the restaurant and bar as we had our dog with us. The staff in the evening were amazing when we were having ‘one last drink’ in the lounge. They helped others with eating places still open and even rang them to expect orders. Breakfast is top quality and very well cooked. This stay, our room needed some TLC. The radiator has seen better days, as has the carpet and the bath/shower combo only suits the super flexible due to the very high step up and in! A big plus is that the bed is very comfy and the added extras of tea/coffee/biscuits are a bonus in the morning. We would stay again.

Best hotel by miles

Only stayed for one night sadly. Had 8 hotel nights on tbis holiday, and this hotel was miles better than all the rest. Room was lovely. En suite was fabulous. Eating areas, so clean. Reading room had a fire on, comfy chairs, and the daily paper. What more could anyone ask! Staff extremely pleasant and professional. Breakfast was excellent. Definately a hotel to enjoy more than once...so wete working out our return trio!
