I'd definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises.
Pros:

Good food and drink, staff were friendly and polite. Hotel room was nice and clean. Breakfast is perfect with a good selection of cereals and cooked breakfasts to choose from. Plenty of parking here and the location was good for travelling to places like Donington Park.

Cons:

My only complaint is that for someone around 6ft the shower head was too low down and not adjustable.

Comfortable Room, friendly staff and great pub restaurant
Pros:

The hotel had character, with a great bar and restaurant, and our room was comfortable and very clean. I thought it was exceptional value, with a lovely atmosphere and would stay again if heading North and needed to stop just off the M1!

Cons:

Not much really, the bathroom wasn't the most modern, but for the price point, I wouldn't expect it to be.
