Black mold in shower room, shower head blocked up with lime scale, shower water cold at night and around 80°C in the morning and no adjustment, carpet stained and dirty, mattresses worn out, bathroom towl rail stuck on and over heating the room, water leak in centre of the bedroom ceiling, condensation running down wall and damp to the touch on all other walls. Bedroom furnishings old and outdated, nothing PAT tested. Horrible stay, staff uninterested and unhelpful

The room was small, bed was uncomfortable, bathroom huge but tired looking at a bit dirty. Room was right next to the road, so very noisy. Hard to get around the bed, bashed my legs several times. But have stayed in other rooms before that were better!

Loveley grounds set back from the road. Good roomy chalet, with spacious bathroom and walk in shower, though it would benefit from some updating. Excellent breakfast with helpful staff.
