    Clean, comfortable, ideal overnight stay visiting family nearby. Great breakfast offering, and generally very child friendly.

    Initial contact from one member of reception staff - we arrived 10 minutes early for check in, with our toddler grand daughter, on a Sunday afternoon - so not a busy time, and were turned away with 'the room is not ready' without even asking our name or checking our reservation. Also, the wi fi was patchy in our room.

    Property response:

    Dear Anne, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you found your stay clean, comfortable and family-friendly, and that you enjoyed our breakfast offering. We are, however, very sorry for the impression you received on arrival. Our reception team should always make guests feel welcome and check reservation details before advising on room availability. Your comments will be shared with the team to ensure this is addressed and handled more considerately in future. We also regret that the Wi-Fi connection in your room was not as reliable as it should have been. We are reviewing this with our provider to ensure a better guest experience going forward. We do hope to welcome you back again and provide a smoother start to your stay. Kind regards John Mitchell Operations Manager

    The bed was comfortable!

    Dogs walking around the hotel It is very dated and tired Poorly stocked bar Overpriced for what it is An additional £20 needed to park

    Property response:

    Dear Susan, Thank you for sharing your feedback following your recent stay with us. We are pleased to hear that you found the bed comfortable, though we are truly sorry that other aspects of your visit did not meet expectations. We understand your concerns regarding the dated feel of the hotel and bar availability, and we will share these points with the team as we continue to make improvements. Please note that we are a dog-friendly hotel, which many guests appreciate, though we do recognise this may not suit everyone. With regard to parking, this is managed externally, and we appreciate that the additional cost can be disappointing. Your comments are very valuable to us, and we will use them to help us improve both our facilities and service. Kind regards John Mitchell Operations Manager

    Night duty and reception staff were friendly and extremely helpful. Very happy with service. The room was clean and comfortable, and the location was good.

    Bar staff were rude. Evening restaurant staff were poor. We were placed at a table where restaurant staff kept brushing past us. Staff did not smile or engage with us. Not a pleasant evening would not eat there again.
