A comfortable stay with good parking and easy access to other venues
Pros:

Easy access to parking and other venues. Comfortable good sized room with character throughout the building.

Cons:

Breakfast is an afterthought, the service is extremely slow and the coffee is just warm. We ate in the hotel one night, the gastro reputation is perhaps a little overstated as we had better options and food at the other local venues tried during our time

Nice place but shame about the light on all night
Pros:

Lovely pub with nice food and beer garden

Cons:

The ridiculous bright green light in the ceiling in the room (room 1) which couldn’t be switched off so I struggled to sleep

All a bit tired and shabby. Stains on wall in bathroom. Loo not functioning properly. Public areas a bit run down. Very noisy as room directly above beer garden. Was expecting something nicer for the price
