It has been refurbished since I last stayed there. What I didn't like was I had to be rescued by housekeeping as the door lock was broken and I couldn't get out. Good job there wasn't a fire.

Its a pub with rooms not a chain hotel so that's what to expect. Very handy for the town and the nearby air base. No fuss check in or out. Pub area looked good with a mixture of bar area and slightly more relaxed seating area.

Pleasant and helpful staff. Plenty of free parking and located centrally in town. Great price and value for money. Recommend for a informal, low cost stay in a historic building.
