Good atmosphere

As we made a last minute change to accommodate our dog we had a rather small room for two plus , but as only one night it was fine. The other family member with us had a lovely room so no complaints really

Good hotel.

Second visit and the hotel coverall was very good. However, the weather was very warm and so was the room with no air conditioning. Unfortunately the windows could only be partly opened due to security cables. Only a duvet was provided but far too warm for use. A sheet would have been good but not provided. A fan was provided but not that useful. So overall sleep difficult.

Spoilt by a really loud TV all night

Great room, great food. Busy road location but ok.. great staff! Nobody at checkout to complain about the loud TV noise I had to endure all night as not obvious where it was coming from! So I didn’t sleep great.

This place is a serious find, loved it from start to finish. Beautiful bar, restaurant and rooms, everything was perfect, I was massively impressed. And to the person who checked us in (feel bad I didn’t get their name) and also served us in the restaurant was literally like Mary Poppins, big thank you. We will most certainly return.

Lovely hotel and plenty of room for 3 of us, just a little stuffy with the option of a relatively noisy fan.

Good for a quick stopover

We went for the really fancy room as we were staying with our dog so wanted a bit more space, they provided a little dog package which was lovely but a bit expected due to the £20 charge which seemed a bit high. Unfortunately though this room was right by the door to the floor and so it took our dog quite a while to get used to the constant banging of this door of people in an out. The room itself was spacious and nicely styled but again unfortunately the room was at the front close to the road which was also a little noisy. All in all a nice stay for a quick stopover but not sure I’d stay longer than a night.

Check in was easy and they had given us an upgrade which was a bonus. Room very comfortable and clean. Tea, coffee machine and proper milk. A very special treat were some sweet treats. Had an evening meal and both chose burgers which we enjoyed. Small menu but was ok. Excellent sleep in a huge bed, room very dark so slept in. Breakfast had a good choice that was cooked to order. Can recommend the smoked salmon and scrambled egg on toast. All the staff were friendly and worked hard. Thank you

Perfect for meeting up with friends. Liked variety of menu choice - and we all enjoyed our choices. Breakfast was expensive as all items individually priced (fruit over £5 which I chose to add to muesli). Nice relaxed feel; staff lovely and room very comfortable.
