"Suited us as near to where we needed to be for surprise visit. Shelf in foyer with tea coffee milk etc so can still make a drink if run out in room. Big room with double bed and sofa. Bed a bit too close to wall which is not ldeal if you need to get up in the night. Cant move it over due to fixed furniture. Parking included on site so good value if you need a short stop over. Worth checking which side you come in on as services both sides but hotel only on one so if ring ahead can get a code to go over bridge and save 12 miles!"
