Pros:

It was a lovely hotel the staff were all very polite & helpful.

Cons:

There was an old receipt on the floor and other bits from previous guests. Cold water on the shower did not work & there was no water coming from the hot water tap in the sink was very disappointing considering how much we paid .

Pros:

Central venue

Cons:

Noise at night after requesting a quiet room-my room overlooked the Main Street and the noise from the bar opposite plus installation of market stalls directly below my room at 6 am. Poor WiFi connex

Nice stay.
Pros:

Location and friendly staff.

Cons:

Parking was a bit convoluted. Full dog friendly costs are not obvious on booking and pricy at £25 per dog per night.

Pros:

Room was beautiful, decor, excellent, wallpaper intriguing.
Breakfast was excellent, great service and very pleasant staff.
Food on all 3 days was excellent - different in each location we selected and all great in their own way.

Cons:

We regularly go away for a weekend and 1 of us always spends a few hours on Friday evenings gaming online, This was not possible at Cameron House, as you have set up your TV to ensure nobody can access the internet. We were very disappointed that out of many venues we have stayed in, yours is the only one we have met with this problem. Staff were pleasant and understanding but could not help.

On at least one morning, pastries were not fresh that morning.

There was a delay when we asked for salt at the breakfast table and we were surprised that A: there was no salt on the table and B: it was apparently so hard to find us any when we asked...!
