Poor nights sleep
All was good apart from the bed being 2 feet to short and extremely soft which is no good for people with minor back issues. Very noisy road with no deflection of sound till after works traffics gone , I’d use again but would want a room that does not back onto the road

My only issue was bedroom size and noise from garden on my windows but I didn’t stay long enough to rate or notice anything bad. Location is very good and easy to access. Didn’t have time to try the meals but smelled delicious and atmosphere seemed very inviting 🙏

Shower problems
The beds were very comfy and the room was spotless Food was pricey but worth every penny very delicious, only problem I would say is that I felt a bit unsafe in the shower no hand rails to hold on to and no non slip mat in the shower plus no bath handles to get out of shower and no mat on the floor when you step out of the shower

A warm welcome on our arrival and was checked in quickly and escorted to our room. Staff were terrific, dinner plentiful, warm ambience and fairly busy. The room is small but fine for one night and price. The only thing was the headboard in room 2 was flaking off. Such an easy fix but very visible when you first walk in - an impression that makes you think what else is wrong here. Also a couple of cleaning products left in room. Again, not a big deal, but careless. Would recommend to stay for a night or two but fix the obvious.

Lovely food
Lovely looking hotel with ample parking. The food was excellent if a little expensive. We looked for a traditional type pub so we could have a meal then drink, the issue here is there is no actual sitting area for drinkers. It caters only for diners and if your table is required you need to move on. On this occasion we coukd stay, but it didn't have the cosy feel we were looking for. The room was generally okay, but the bed uncomfortable.
