Lovely room

Great little stay. Tasteful bright room with really good amenities. We arrived too late on Sunday night for eating in the pub but had had a great take out from Thai restaurant in nearby Christchurch. Dog enjoyed stay too!

ok

business trip, 1 night stay. The hotel is not operating to its full summer potential. The kitchen shuts at 20:00, meaning, not good for me getting there at 19:40. Staff were fantastic but again no breakfast offered, i am guessing it must be because its not summer. Probably if i were staying in the area again i would choose a hotel with more facilities

Very friendly and helpful staff. Very nice room with a comfortable bed. Extra pillows provided but found them uncomfortable unfortunately. The shower lacked a shelf to put your shower gel or shampoo on. Food was nice. Nothing outstanding though.
