Stopped here a few times and for an airport hotel, it's one of the better ones. The staff are super friendly and it offers great value for money. The rooms are a little on the cosy side but are well equipped and modern. My only gripe, and this is a personal preference, is that the mattress is too hard and the pillows are not great. One pillow is too low and two pillows is too high. Woke up with a stiff neck and a headache from the pillows. This was sorted out by a lovely hot shower in the modern...

A very comfortable country pub, with great food, top chef and well kept beer. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble.
My room was a tad small and basic but the bathroom was modern and hey this is a 16th century building and I enjoyed my stay.

Quirky old inn with good food reasonably priced - lovely atmosphere. We arrived late after last meal orders however staff on duty accommodated us by providing soup of the day which was much appreciated as we had not eaten since breakfast. The bed was very comfortable and we have a great nights sleep.

Lovely stay as always for a family birthday meet up celebration. The pools and leisure centre are heavenly, especially when the sun comes out. Real holiday vibes in the outdoor pool area.
Restaurant food and service exceptional.
Only criticism this stay was that the rooms were far too hot at night, couldn't control the radiator heat!
