Definitely would stay again, especially if could get room nearer reception.
Pros:

Family suite was good sized, with nice little lounge. Good breakfast and helpful staff. Really quiet, although not sure if it was busy as we managed to park in the small car park.

Cons:

It was a very long walk from reception to the room with lots of stairs, not good for those with mobility aids. Could not get the shower to be anything other than cold, and due to the walk to reception could not easily ask for help.

Very disappointing!
Pros:

The only good thing about the room was the way it was divided into 3 separate rooms so that myself and my wife could have our own room and the kids could have their own separate rooms.

Cons:

All the beds were uncomfortable. To state it is a "modern hotel" is a bit of an exaggeration when the fixtures and fittings were so old. Cracked sink in the bathroom. Toilet not flushing properly and the shower was not great either. Terrible nights sleep was had by all!! Evening meal wasn't the greatest. I don't know if it was because it was a bank holiday weekend, but the staff just stayed at the front and stared at you while you were eating, almost as if they were trying to hurry you up. I had the burger for a main and it was ok. My son had a steak which was alright but the chunky chips were soggy. My wife had the roast which was awful!! Massive vein running the length of the beef and the yorkshire pudding was like a hockey puck!! Gravy was also non existent in the tiniest pot you could ever imagine too. Dessert was ok though. Breakfast didn't fair much better with overdone eggs and everything else pretty much tasteless! Having said that, my son's pancake stack looked pretty good.

Don't let the dislikes put you off
Pros:

We have used the hotel several times, usually as an overnight stay. The rooms were comfortable and clean, the staff were always helpful and friendly. The food and drink was always very good and the waiting stall were always very helpful.

Cons:

2 points:
Car parking can be bothersome because we have at times had to use a public car park at the rear of the hotel because their overspill park is open only sometimes.
In the dining room many little fruit flies are buzzing around
