Needs updating

Booked suite so got parking thank goodness. Room a bit dated. Good to have a fridge. Heating came on at 2.30am very annoying. Room was to hot. Window wouldn’t stay open. Bed very hard. Tv remote did not work. Menu at night awful when asked for advice on special pie just told in was meat. Breakfast was good. Would have liked filter coffee for the price.

Superb room but poor facilities

The room was superb - however the stay was let down firstly initial welcome at hotel - asked about parking and member of staff was not helpful at all - must remember most guests will not know the area so by saying park in the car park up the road is not helpful - Secondly - dinner - not everything available on menu but to make thing worse could hear disgruntlement from the kitchen staff. Positive what we ordered was very nice. Thirdly breakfast - first experience- omelette undercooked and again could hear staff in kitchen talking with exasperation. Second experience no kitchen staff so unable to provide cooked breakfast

Staff extremely helpful, room clean, comfortable and well appointed. I suspect parking would be an issue in summer as relies on public car park but worked for us in February!

What a view!

A lovely place to stay with views to die for. The rooms were large and comfy, thought he mattress seemed a bit old. Staff were very helpful and friendly and the breakfast was good quality for a good price. Walking distance to the train station and a few nice pubs too.
