Nice comfortable hotel

Stayed here after a family get together at their nearby home. Room wasn’t the biggest but the bed was comfortable and it was still lovely. Quiet pub downstairs so no issues with noise. We didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment. Staff were friendly and helpful.
Nina, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfortable stay, some noise from the kitchen extractor
Phil, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We only had a one night stay for an occasion. Once we found a car park, that was good, but there is no hotel parking. The hotel staff were very pleasant. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was good, but we thought it was a little bit pricey. An enjoyable stay.
Jane, 1-night trip

Clean, good sized room and bed for a single. Good central location in town centre. Only down side is the parking is a couple of minutes walk away (fairly cheap for all day and free on Sunday)
