Overall pleasant stay

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 4 Jan 2025via mobile
Lovely staff. The room was slightly dated and had a few problems getting the shower to stay one temperature, but the bed was comfortable, and for the price was overall a pleasant stay. Breakfast was good, this was a cooked breakfast but there were also a selection of cereals set out if wanted

This is a gem of a hotel. The location is excellent and the double room we stayed in was perfect for our three night stay. Breakfast was excellent too with locally sourced ingredients. The staff were all lovely and made us feel very welcome . We are really looking forward to returning in the New Year. Thank you to all the staff; your excellent reviews are richly deserved!

We booked this stay short notice and looked for a cheap overnight break.
I had a slight concern when I noticed dogs were allowed, but from the moment you received the friendly welcome at reception to check out the hotel smelt so clean, you would not have known people had dogs there .
They claim to provide a fabulous breakfast which is a bold claim and sets expectation high. They did not disappoint, friendly service, nice selection of cold produce and then a well cooked breakfast .
I would not hesitate to stay again and wish we had booked a longer stay.

Room tip: If you struggle with stairs I would advise requesting a lower level room as the stairs to the second floor are quite steep. This is merely an observation.

The room was clean and the staff friendly my only complaint is dogs in the dining area I understand it's dog friendly but dogs should not be in the dining room getting fed bacon and sausages under the table while I had my breakfast I had 3 dogs around me

Room tip: Beware of dogs in the dining room if you don't like dogs
