Lovely hotel and staff, the room was nice too. We stayed as an an anniversary party in the venue attached.
Breakfast was lovely.
Only criticism would be that the rooms were quite warm.

Lovely location and a great hotel. We parked nearby on the road although there is a small car park around the back. Bigger mugs for the rooms would be nice though. We didn’t eat as the kitchen was closed on Sunday but would love to come back to try the food.

For the price we paid it was good accomodation. The room would be better if it was painted a lighter colour as it seems to dark. Loved the restsurant downstairs.

A very good ‘restaurant with rooms’ hotel. Super comfy beds, excellent breakfast, very friendly staff. The corridors and staircase are looking a little tired but our room was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Highly recommend the restaurant too, had a great atmosphere and good food.
