A Youngs pub with rooms, done exceptionally well. The best bit is that the staff are all fabulous!
Pros:

A lovely room, large comfortable bed, well equipped bathroom with walk-in shower. On the hottest day of the year so far, air conditioning in the bedroom was an unexpected bonus. And the staff really made the stay, every single member of the team gave 110%.

Cons:

Car park is supposed to be for those staying overnight, but with no enforcement it was a bit of a free for all. I find chargeable in-room snacks a bit tacky, especially when more expensive than in the bar downstairs. At the nightly rate, I think Youngs could throw in a bottle of mineral water.

Other than the above small issues we enjoyed our stay very much
Pros:

Huge very comfy bed and pillows and well equipped bathroom with an excellent shower

Cons:

Would like to have had at least one drawer especially beside the bed and in the dressing table. We have stayed at the Dukes Head many times before and have always enjoyed the delicious breakfasts. This time my husband didn’t think the quality of the bacon was of the usual high standard and was streaky rather than back bacon. Also the baked beans were only just warm

Wonderful thank you
Pros:

Plush, very comfortable and decorated to a high standard. The bed was huge which makes sleeping as a couple really nice as you both have space. The shower was easy to use and the head on the shower very big so a bit of luxury and everything you needed provided.

Cons:

N/A really don't feel anything was wrong with stay. The staff from chamber personal to bar and reception were great. We will be back asap. Didn't take photos unfortunately. Even other guests were considerate

Pros:

We stayed at Dukes Head few years ago but this time our experience was a lot better.
I can highly recommend this place to anyone who's looking for a good comfortable sleep.
The breakfast was great too.

Cons:

They always give us a downstairs bedroom.
Same room number and over looking the car park!
