Had zero sleep become of other guest's. Couldn't go to report this because there wasnt any staff.got up to shower in the morning as there was only one towel between two people. Was told there was shampoo and wash so wouldnt need any and when i went to shower they was all empty. Told staff when checking out early and their reply was well we cant do anything about guests making noises but about the rest i will let staff know for next time. There will not be another time!

Shame

Restaurant is lovely and so is the food. We’re regulars in the restaurant but have never stayed overnight. We were unfortunately rather disappointed with our room. The carpet was frayed at the doorway and the whole carpet was dirty. There were marks on the walls too. Overall the decor was quite pleasant but the room is very tired. Basically okay for somewhere functional but not if you’re looking for a lovely hotel.

Disappointing

I've stayed before and the rooms are nice enough, I can only assume they're currently sort staffed. Checked in after a long day, no remote in the room, commented Tuesday morning. Checked out Friday, room had not been serviced during the four night stay, no remote added. I guess a nice place for a one night stay.

Nice stay. Food was good, although was better in the past when visiting, not sure if something has changed. Rooms were nice, bed/pillows not great but for the price was fine.

Team makes this a place to come back to again!

Always a great stay because of the staff including Julie, Lawrence, Sean (the Boss man) and Liam (I hope I got the names right). But rooms are a little dusty and my mugs were both stained and needed replacing. Team makes this a place to come back to again and again.

I didn't realise I'd have to request a room clean on a daily basis, so even though the Team had been in to replace towels and empty the bin, the bed remained unmade and the cup was still dirty. Bathroom was far too cold for use at night and in the morning as no central heating, just a heated towel rail. Bathroom floor was covered in hair strands which definitely were not from my head - one of my pet hates - which could only mean the floor hadn't been swept or mopped recently. No water in the room. There was a spare restaurant chair and fan left outside my room door both nights. It's a good thing that my case wasn't larger as i may have struggled to pass these. But as a partial recompense for the bedroom non- clean, Gary did give me 2 complimentary bottled waters the last night. Staff are absolutely lovely, but you can see where there are cost cutting activities. The online express checkout and pay appeared to take my card details but then the screen showed an error on the final page and although i could see the transaction on my card and Google pay app, i was informed the checkout had not completed as it was still in pending status. As i didnt want to pay twice, i asked for a callback if it didnt go through within the next day. Not greeat first stay impressions unfortunately.

Lovely setting - let down by mould coated shower

Black mould on seals in the shower tiled area and the showerheads ruined an otherwise clean, bathroom.Bits of black mould came off when using the shower despite running the water to try to clean it. The extractor did not work so this may have contributed to the problem. Reported at checkout. Lovely setting and very cheery waitresses and bar girls. Limited menu. Breakfast and evening meals more expensive than similar hotels
