A very friendly hotel

Easy to find as there are brown road signs directing you in . Parking was great right by the door, on a cool wet day , always a bonus . This is one friendly hotel , the staff are just lovely , always saying hello when you walk past and with a smile too . This is a clean fresh hotel , everything is brand new within , with some improvements to the exterior too ( always looked a bit agricultural when you drove past in the past ) . The food we had was excellent and bar service spot on too . The room was warm , comfortable and quiet ( unlike a couple of guests who let their door slam after midnight and then again at 645 too 🙄) . The only minor gripe is the price of the excellent food ( £16 for a margarita pizza and £22 for a curry with sides) and the bar prices were a little steep at £7.30 for a pint of Guinness. That said there is nothing nearby , so you are a captive audience to the said pricing structure . I didn’t let that spoil my stay as we were off to a wedding nearby , and there prices were much the same. A recommended hotel stay , and would return without question in the future .

Pretty poor really

We booked months in advance with Hotels.com When we arrived there was no booking details for us! So they created a booking - just a good job it wasn’t full otherwise what would we do? Then there was no heating on in the room, and the shower was cold! The bed was uncomfortable and then in the morning we arrived for breakfast in plenty of time but they were only taking orders and no buffet breakfast available! Sadly, pretty poor all round for a booking made well in advance!

No Access To Room!

A poor experience due to room access not working. I went back and forth to reception at least 4 times and quite late but the entry key system had failed and so in the end I had to be let into my room with a physical master key and was left without a working card entry system. In the morning, the main hotel door was also not working! The got in duty said he would seek a discount for me and I believe some compensation on the rate that I paid would be a reasonable thing to do. So far, no contact or confirmation of any refund from the staff since my stay…
