The pub that I stayed in for the night, was very cozy. the bedroom was clean and the bed was comfortable. Central to the center of town 2 min walk, the staff at the westgate pub were friendly and they cooked a very nice breakfast in the morning. the westgate is perfect for a one night stop over.

The Westgate was easy to find and there was parking around the back of the pub as the town seems to have limited parking. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was lovely. The location is a 5 minute walk to the shops .

The room was fine unfortunately it overlooked the pub courtyard where people were singing and shouting til approx 1230am. Also an external fan which was situated near the room was running all night. Due to it being a very hot night we needed the windows open. Resulting in very little sleep.

You’re staying upstairs of a pub. This helps give a feel for being a local. Welcoming proprietor. There were shrimp shells left in the sink. I’m sure just missed. And the pub tended to be noisy until maybe 11. I appreciated how convenient it was to town. Parking was technical, but super convenient.

I was just in town for the evening and a basic room was all I needed. This place fit the bill. You get what you pay for. Will probably stay again next time I am in the area.

I stayed in room 1: it is very compact but the bed was very comfortable and the room was just the right temperature. There was noise from a boiler I think but after a short while, I didn't notice it. The Full English breakfast was delicious. A great value place to stay!
