Avoid this establishment, not has advertised
When I turned up at the hotel the staff didn't know I was expected - the member of staff on shift had to call his boss to check. After been shown to the room I discovered that the heating wasn't working and the mobile heater was broken, the staff member however quickly got me a replacement which was most welcome since the room was very cold. The room was basic, the mattress was too big for the bed base resulting in me nearly rolling off the top and the shower was dirty with a previous occupants hair on the walls. After the shower I decides to do some work, there wasn't any signal in the room and the wifi didn't work- totally frustrating !!! At least I was looking forward to a nice cooked breakfast in the morning - which was arranged for 7.30am... with the staff members manager on the phone. Next morning, at 7.40am the front and side door was locked, the lights were off - no one was home - I did call the number which was on a piece of paper attached to the inside window of the front door but there was no reply - the result of this was NO breakfast !! Ultimately I had paid for a service which I didn't receive!! I feel totally frustrated and aggrieved, I will NEVER return to this establishment.

Strange night...
Room heated with a plug in electric heater... shower/loo room freezing and therefore uninviting. Noisy heating exhaust pipe outside room went on and off constantly all night (half a minute between each firing). Irony that the central heating wasn't in the room. I went down for breakfast but doors were all locked except for kitchen door... seened no one around. I left my key in the room (having prepaid) and went away. Very strange visit! The TV was also a probkem...the wifi access or sky access didn't allow me to get channel 4 or Itv... disconcerting all round. Won't be going there ever again.

Awful stay and awful service!
I arrived at 20:30 to be told only Pizzas were available and then to be told that there was no dough, I asked if there was any food and got no answer. I asked again at my room and was told there was no chef on, I asked if just a sandwich or oven chips or something and was not answered again. I therefore or left right away to drive to the town and get food. When I returned to the room I realised how different to the promo photos the room was! It also was freezing (8 degrees). There is no radiator in this room. I found a plug in heater in the wardrobe but this small unit was not enough to heat the room. This could have been plugged in before my arrival at very least! The mattress was larger than the base which meant if you rolled over you fell out of bed. It also meant that there was no friction to hold the sheet on as you can see in my photo. I was asked what time I would like breakfast, I agreed to their earilest time, 8am. When I walked into the pub at 8 I realised I was the only patron, so I have no idea why I was put in THAT room! There is no breakfast buffet or menu. They make Full english or full english. However on that day they had no beans; I guess tinned baked beans must be hard to find or difficult to keep fresh.... The breakfast also took 25 minutes, why could this not have been pre prepared when it is the only option the offer AND I was the only patron AND they knew when I was coming....
King size mattress on Double base. This means that the sheets don't stay on!
This room is not in the promo photos
Quality!

The pub was closed on Sunday, no food or drink. Reception by phone. Disgusting and disappointed, nothing about this in advertisement or notification when booked! Found somewhere else to stay! Don’t go to This place.

Needs some TLC
I really want to speak higher of the establishment as the staff were so lovely but unfortunately there was a few things wrong. Firstly, there was over an hour wait for food. Ordinarily I wouldn't mind but the pub wasn't even busy at this time - some of the food was over cooked which therefore couldn't be eaten but this was rectified taking this off the bill. In the room the TV didn't work and the lamps didn't either so we were asleep by 9! The beds were comfortable and the shower pressure was great it's just a shame the rooms need some loving.
