I stay at this hotel frequently, the newer rooms in the hotel building are nice particularly the ones above the front doors these provide a lovely view. I always enjoy my meals here and on a nice evening it’s so peaceful to sit outside looking over the river with a refreshment. Breakfast is fresh cooked which I do prefer however not a massive choice in terms of Continental. Overall I enjoy staying here and the staff are always helpful.

Stayed here for 2 nights for my partners birthday. The hotel is in a lovely spot by the river with a nice area outside to relax in. It's ideally situated between 2 national trust properties, (both of which are well worth a visit). The room itself could do with a bit of TLC, but it was clean and comfortable. Slept really well. Food was decent, self serve buffet breakfast which had quite agood choice. The staff were friendly and there was plenty of parking on site. Had a pleasant stay overall and would definitely stay here again.
