Absolutely lovely hotel, very central with great undercover parking option for motorcycles. Great value with breakfast included.

Good value for money
Pros:

Friendly staff, how comfortable and spacious the room was .

Cons:

Was no windows to open for ventilation, was quite warm day/ night. Eventhough there was a fan in the room still felt stuffy, it would have been good if there was a net curtain to leave closed when opening up the bigger curtain so you could let in natural light and have some privacy.

Pleasant hotel stay at a very reasonable price.
Pros:

Good breakfast in with the price paid. It would have been nice if the dining room had been open for an evening meal but we were able to enjoy a meal in the pub two doors away.
Lovely big room with a very nice sized en suite and the staff were all very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The hotel was a little bit tired, just needing a refresh of paintwork and carpet.

Unforgettable for all the wrong reasons.
Pros:

The room facilities were fine and the breakfast was very nice.

Cons:

On a blisteringly hot night in a room without ventilation and only a small window that couldn't be left open because of security . I wanted my wife to join me in the car in the car park. That's how uncomfortable it was.

It’s a friendly hotel with a good breakfast menu, better than usual for the price range. Lovely village, lots going on
Pros:

It’s an old building, full of character. The bedrooms were well appointed, maybe a bit too modern for the age of the building

Cons:

All good
