Great location and price. Staff were all welcoming and friendly. The room was like a furnace and it did take me a moment or two to figure how to turn the heating down.

We were in one of the rooms in a converted building at the back of the pub. And it was lovely. Beautifully decorated, comfy bed, lovely shower room. It was delightful. Staff were really helpful, and breakfast was fabulous. We will certainly return.

One night stay at The Gillygate

Stayed for one night. The room we got facec the road but it was not noisy. The location was superb because it was walking distance to many tourist places. Many restaurants & shops nearby. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Parking was very limited but no extra charges.

Liked: Staff & service
The staff were lovely generally with the exception of the person I met on the last day who was downright hostile . They did a sandwich for me to take away in day one which was lovey. The WiFi didn’t work which was disappointing. I was advised to collect a router in my return but I feel this should have been addressed. I wasn’t great about staying in a room used for pets but it is what it is . The room was ok, I slept well but the shower was very slow which may not be in the control of the owners .

Central location. Free parking on site. Security conscious. Good breakfast. 9.00am -9.30 for breakfast was a short amount of time. Would have preferred 8.30-9.30.
