My second function with this hotel. I had my wedding 5 years ago and my 50th last week and both events were amazing!!Friendliest welcome on arrival. The owner Jenny, and her daughter Caroline seem to always bend over backwards to make you feel at home.Several of my family members also use this hotel and feel the same. Food is fantastic,... More

Stayed for two nights and had a really comfortable stay. Allocated a room on the top floor which was very quiet and just what I needed. Very friendly staff that took care of your needs. Nice touch being taken to your room. Really enjoyed breakfast and tried the restaurant; nice evening meal options in the restaurant - would recommend

I stayed here with work for one night. The website was less than informative, but the pictures have the hotel character. I didn't expect, upon arrival, for the hotel to be on the middle of a housing estate! The rooms were large, as was the bathroom. A bit outdated, with old mixer show taps and no wifi in the rooms....

On arrival we were greeted by one of the owners ( i`m sorry, I didn`t ask her name). We were made very welcome, shown to... More

The hotel was very welcoming,the bedroom was very large,clean and considering it was -3,very warm. Breakfast was better than expected and tasted brilliant. Staff were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble.

Went for a meal the other week with family. Sat in the conservatory which was quite a nice area but had to wait a while before our order was taken. When it eventually arrived it was only warm but food tasted ok. Feel as if there was no urgency in this place and certainly a lack of effort on the... More
