Good check-in and glass of wine offered. Nice rural vibes. Breakfast awful - for such a high room rate, queuing with the previous days wedding party for a very average offer wasn’t a nice start to your day. Seriously, the sausages and Bacon were Premier Inn at best! Also, the world of breakfast has moved on and you need to change not stay locked in the 90s.

Cosy welcoming hotel

We really like this hotel. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We liked our room and it was cosy too. We thought the newly renovated dining room was delightful but would have appreciated stronger lights so we could read in the bar area. A lovey stay and hoped to return soon.

The grounds are nice and the area wonderful.

The rooms are on the small side and so are the bathrooms but the bed was very comfortable and had some nice touches. Tea and coffee and biscuits. The menu wasn’t great but what we had was quite good.

Fabulous and friendly

Very friendly staff made this a thoroughly lovely experience. From the glass fo wine handed to you on arrival, you are left with the impression that the staff simply can't do enough for you. Excellent food in the restaurant (supper and breakfast) with prompt service thoughout. Even thought this was only a business stay, I would highly recommend this hotel to people visiting the area.
