Room was good new. I was in one that was quiet had no issues. Only issue was being thrown out the pub at closing time without any warning of last orders or consideration that we were hotel guests. Left to finish our drinks outside

Enjoyable stay

Our second visit, and more planned. Beautifully decorated, and clean rooms. Had a lovely meal in the pub. Some of the rooms are upstairs and down fairly long corridors, so my only advice would be to book directly, to ensure a ground floor room if needed.

Great stay

I have been staying with friends at this hotel for over 15 years and the new look has made a vast improvement. The food and staff were fantastic. However the card only payment scheme and no vehicle electric charging station may put me off in future.
