Great value, convenient hotel
Pros:

Lovely staff, good hot water, convenient for town. Wine tsty and reasonably priced

Cons:

I'm on fat jabs so found the evening menu a bit carbohydrate heavy however food delivered plain and good value especially pensioners menu! I am a bit of a faddy eater and prefer my bacon crispy.

Pros:

The location is great. Everyone working there is friendly and helpful. The room is clean and has everything I need. The big plus for me is if I feel the need, I can put my motorcycle in the garage. I've been to Arden House a few times and will more than likely go again.

The staff were lovely and friendly.
We adore the look of Arden House Hotel and the location is absolutely stunning - one of our favourite places to go for a lovely visit. Breakfast was beautiful.
Thank you

Everything was great, only one thing was a small issue, that was stairs for less mobile visitors.
But it didn't stop us having a fantastic time!
