We were lucky we called as we hadn't anticipated that we had to arrive by a certain time. We were simply handed a key to our room - no paperwork or information about how to depart the following day. It was a very noisy room in the morning and with the traffic. Other than this - OK. No car parking to speak of as only 3 spaces at the back. When we left - nobody was around - the bar was locked so we just left our key in the room door and departed. Seemed strange not to see anyone.

Had to stand at the bar for 10 mins whilst staff chit chatted before I could check in. Beds could do with replacing, but other amenities were nice. Note that it is above a pub so will be loud in the evenings, that didn't bother us though.

Location good. Property very scruffy - old mattress in car park etc. Parking a problem - very limited (3 spaces) and shared with locals so even less available to 13 resident rooms. Exposed carpet grippers between bedroom and bathroom - painful and hazardous. Cheap mattresses. Felt dirty overall. No breakfast available for which we were grateful in the end. Strictly no refunds.

Convenient location, excellent value for money. Room had coffee/tea marking facilities and ample towels, shampoo etc. Downside no shower in the room & its a pity the bar didn't do food, also could really do with parking onsite. There were a few cobwebs around the ceiling joists, the whole place was oldy worldly. Staff were super nice.. Loved it 😍

Although the property is attractive and historic, it is in poor repair and all the modern facilities that one would expect are of poor quality and I’ll maintained. The room allocated was above the kitchen area and the extracts fans were in a cupboard right next to the wall of our room, which was the only one vacant. The noise from the fans was very high with a vibration which shook all the furniture and could be felt in the floor. This persisted until 9pm when the kitchen ceased to supply food and as breakfast was not offered, remained off until after our ‘escape’ I would not recommend this establishment for a stay to anyone who wants to use the facilities in any way before 9pm or is completely deaf.
