Smelly dated room …. Don’t book here if you need a romantic night away!
Pros:

Uuumm

Cons:

Smelly rooms, dated decor, shocking carpets, house keeping obviously need a lesson in cleaning as
It was well below par! The stale smell
Of men’s urine in the toilet was overwhelming, the shower pressure was a joke , the damp smell In the Main room was difficult to escape. Even when the Nice lady in reception sprayed room spray to Lighten the stench! The bed has obviously seen some action in its time as it now sags in the
Middle of the bed and is most uncomfortable! Definitely not worth the money! Please don’t book here if you’d like a nice room for the night! Brekkie average! Just don’t bother…..

Disappointed an the too need a clean dust on wall over the bedside lights and cobwebs on sealing and bedside lamps disgu
Pros:

Bar and restaurant

Cons:

According to your website all your dog room are on the ground floor that’s why we booked as we were there in July for 2 nights and wanted to stay an extra night and was told by Katie there was only room upstairs and was not allowed for dogs the inconvenience of having to take a dog down stairs to the toilet and we observed a couple book in which had no dog staying in ground floor for dogs and spoke to another couple they weren’t happy as the same was done to them and the whole time we were there the room wasn’t cleaned no towel changed or top up of tea or coffee or toilet paper had to purchase our own very bad from the first time we stayed will not be going again
