Easy to find, excellent parking facilities, and probably the most spacious breakfast area we've ever seen. Comfortable, quiet, and warm room - what more could you want? ##### Barry Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shaun 9 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great looking property, the staff were great and very friendly. ![Great](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a03ea337-4fc2-460c-8a3f-33c2342cbc7a-1760026946640.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Shaun Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stewart 8 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Atmospheric old building, welcoming and friendly staff, characterful grounds. ##### Stewart Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Linda 14 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Room very clean and comfortable ##### Linda Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Laurence 22 Oct 2025 The staff were helpful and friendly.

Staff were very helpful and friendly. Only criticism was breakfast started at 0730 which is maybe why I was unable to book it online and had to do so at the hotel, but as I was working in the area it was a rush getting away in the morning! I would book again if in the area. ##### Stuart Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Raymond 12 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Parking good, room comfortable.
