Fabulous accommodation and fabulous food
Pros:

The room was clean, comfortable and well stocked with tea, coffee and biscuits. Very impressed with the shower and the toiletries provided were top quality. The staff were welcoming and friendly and made us feel at home. The food was excellent. We ate at the hotel several times during our stay and the standard and choice of meals was exceptional. We look forward to returning in the not too.distant future.

Pros:

The redecoration has been done well, nice and fresh rooms now. New food menu had a broader selection than previously and tasted good.

Cons:

The twin beds I had could have been put together to make a double which would have been much more comfortable for me travelling on my own. Breakfast opened at 8am which was a little late due to my plans so couldn't take advantage. Also disappointing that the bar closes early (9.30) during the weeek.

Lovely stay, very clean, and the staff were friendly.
Pros:

Room 9 was lovely. Large, bright, very clean. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We ate our evening meal there which was great. Also breakfast was good. Car park at the rear of the property.

Cons:

Two things. In room 9 there was only a stool to sit on. The room is large enough for a couple of small chairs which would be great, especially for those of us with bad backs who can’t sit or lie on a bed. And we could hear very little nice from the bathroom next door through the walls.

We booked late. The room was brilliant, characterful and spacious. I would stay again if the need arises. Excellent conversion of an older building. Decent breakfast too.

Cons:

Can't really fault the place. I would highly recommend it.

Pros:

Room was large with plenty of space, and clean and tidy. Beds were very comfortable and cosy.

The staff were very friendly and the check in was straight forward with all points covered at check in.

Cons:

We booked the room thinking we had booked a dog friendly room. But unfortunately we were informed after booking that all the dog friendly rooms had been taken. We were offered a cancellation but decided to leave our pet at home with our daughter.
