Great stay and good meeting room.
Pros:

Room, Dinner and Breakfast

Ver nice room with a good heater and and a traditional feel. The food was very good.

Cons:

Hot water was cold - however kettle was available. When I mentioned this, I gathered that a preliminary runtime of several minutes is needed.

Will most definitely be back.
Pros:

Fantastic staff, our room in the courtyard was excellent. I usually struggle to sleep when staying away from home but no problems here. The pillows were so comfortable (a big thing for me), the bedding cold and crisp and the shower was perfect.

Cons:

Some confusion over the dinner menus. One online, one in the room and at the restaurant all different. However, chef’s homemade crème egg cheesecake was a knockout!!

Pros:

The staff were amazing — they got in touch before my stay to ask about my check-in time and whether I’d like dinner. They were incredibly friendly and couldn’t have done more to help. The food was also good value for the price.

Cons:

the downside was the cleanliness. The bar and rooms weren’t very clean, and the whole place felt quite dated. In my room, the wallpaper was peeling off the walls and the overall setup was very basic.

Great stay, lovely people looking after the property!
Pros:

We stayed one night, on our way to the Sibson Aerodrome. We only utilised the room and for a drink the night we arrived. The people looking after the property were great, very friendly and helpful whenever needed!
