Parking was very busy but managed to find a spot. Staff very welcoming and helpful. Room was clean & tidy - very warm. A good breakfast with a good choice of options.
Great location, fantastic staff, and hotel has a great bar that gets quite busy. It wasn’t a major issue for us but if you’re looking for a quieter night away be aware area around hotel can be a bit noisy outside later at night.
Room was clean, had to pay extra £30 for breakfast which wasn't worth the money, reception staff was excellent helped with door on arrival and departure from hotel, bar staff were very slow at taking our dinner order although the food was excellent
Reception staff were great from
the time we called to the time we left. The heating had broken in the room but they got another radiator in straight away. Breakfast staff were lovely; friendly, cheerful and helpful. Fab stay.
Staff excellent, bedroom/bathroom needs updating, good choice at breakfast

Staff were very friendly, only issue was the car parking. Small car park in which someone in a Blue Audi TT decided to create their own car parking place on the access road and block other cars in. Car was there overnight so there was plenty of opportunity for the hotel to ask the guest to move it
Loved the hotel room was very clear and everything you would need .had food in the bar two Sunday roasts for 20 pounds it was beautiful and staff were very friendly.
