Staff were so lovely and helpful. Food all very nice. Room was reasonable and the shower was amazing.

Unfortunately there was a bit of mould on the ceiling in the bedroom and extractor fan wasn't working in the bathroom so was a bit damp.

Convenient to the airport and main road
Pros:

Convenient to the airport and main road

Cons:

Couldn’t eat there as they had electrical problems so kitchen out of order. However did get a phone call in advance to forewarn us to eat elsewhere. Limited power when we checked in but at 9pm all power failed so once dark had little option other than to go the sleep

Excellent comfy room close to airport.
Pros:

Close to airport. Lovely views. Quiet beer garden. Plenty of parking. Lots of space in the room.

Cons:

Step stone steps with rusty handrail to get up to the room. Pub closes after breakfast, so nowhere to sit with a coffee and read a paper after checkout.

Convenient location, but room for improvement
Pros:

The main advantage of this property is definitely its location, very close to Bristol Airport, which makes it extremely convenient for early flights or late arrivals. I also appreciated the parking availability, which made everything even easier. The staff were kind, helpful, and willing to accommodate our needs, which was a positive aspect of the stay.

Cons:

The rooms were quite sparsely furnished and felt a bit bare. Soundproofing was also an issue due to the windows there was noticeable noise from the street and the outdoor seating area. Overall, the property seemed to lack attention to detail and maintenance, which affected the overall comfort and atmosphere.
Considering the quality offered, the price felt too high for what you actually get.

Overall, a practical choice for airport proximity, but improvements would be needed to justify the cost.
