Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The outside car parking and gardens are an absolute disgrace
They make the hotel appear derelict and unkept
Inside all looks good, clean and tidy with welcoming staff
First night half the food choses on the menu were not available ( no fish on a Friday )
When food came it was OK

Liked: Amenities
The staff were great, giving a sense of place & atmosphere to the hotel
Only stayed one night so not a fair assessment really. Room was okay but was a little disappointed that our friends that booked at the same time paid less for a better room. Maybe this is the fault of where we booked it and not the hotel but we paid over £20 more for a smaller room. The breakfast was nice but the service was a tad slow! Overall though I would recommend!
I was slightly worried when we drove into the car park as it was a bit scruffy, but I needn’t have worried as the hotel is excellent, with large, comfortable, clean rooms, and really lovely staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely return.
Lovely staff made us feel very welcome. Everything was very clean, would come back!

Spent two nights with breakfast
It is decent place to spend a night or two. We booked this place for two nights. Our room is decent size and it was very cleaned. Breakfast was not that great, had very limited options and portions were average. However,their service was excellent.
