Avoid!

Dated room with peeling wallpaper, lukewarm water, and small uncomfortable bed. Certainly not worth £90. Dinner was shocking, and can only be described as a congealed bowl of slob. Meals were returned to the kitchen uneaten, but the £26 were not refunded. Breakfast was ok, but served on a dirty table with last night's drink stains on it. The only saving grace were the friendly and welcoming staff.

The worst hotel ever. Horrible stay.

Absolutely horrendous experience. No TV in the room and no working WIFI. The worlds most uncomfortable bed. Idiots making a hell of a noise until the early hours. Awful beer and rubbish food. And worse- paid for breakfast. Waited 40 mins and no show by the staff. So no breakfast, even though I paid for it. Worst hotel I have ever stayed in.

Great food - rooms need work

Last minute trip with the grandkids. Lovely pub/restuarant, food delicious - rooms basic and in need of maintenance and mattresses definately need upgrading!. The management and staff were lovely. This place has the makings of being a top class establishment - just needs some TLC from the owners.
