Brilliant stay

Great stay. Staff really friendly and dog friendly room. Room was so clean and as it was a 50th Birthday celebration the hotel left some Prosecco and chocolates and a handwritten note as well as dog treats and toy. What a big surprise and we all loved it. Definitely stay here again. Thank you.

A very good stay thank you. I think the hotel is fine but needs modernising. It seems tired and not worth 4* more like 3.5* I will be staying another time and will recommend to friends. Thank you

Pleasant stay

Nice hotel with great location and view. Reception manned 24 hours and really helpful. Welcoming seats to relax in foyer but a bit chilly in the evening. Room had everything you needed , though pillows were flat with very noisy cotton which disturbed sleep unfortunately. Two chairs in room which is always good as a couple. Ate in the pub both evenings, one meal lovely but unfortunately fish and chips was not!! Breakfast was a good selection, fresh fruit and yoghurt was lovely.
