Rooms a lovely, if a bit warm. Lovely and characterful - which is impressive for a building which is only 10 or so years old. Only slight downside was the food at night. Which was a bit average. But as a hotel, for the price you pay, can’t fault it

JOHN

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
The staff were faultless, and paid much attention to my border collie (not surprising: that always happens.) The room was too hot and there were a lot of strange stains on the walls. Very weird. The rooms were good otherwise. Bathroom very stylish and functional. Bed= comfortable. Good thread count on the linen. Biscuits good. Coffee undrinksble. I’d stay again, but I’d bring my aeropress. And I’d try not to look at the walls.
Scout under my table after a long day out. The staff love dogs. Very sweet. No water bowls anywhere.

Lovely staff, very friendly. Great food whether eating a Bar Snack or main meal in the restaurant. Room was very clean, only one very minor snag was that we felt it could do with better lighting, the room seemed quite dark and made it difficult to read
