Freezing cold rooms.

Rooms were freezing cold, windows don’t shut properly, mould in bathroom, toilet all stained! Disgusting, grounds had bin bags with rubbish in, which have clearly sat there for days! Pizza boxes all over the gardens, breakfast was really poor! No bar to sit in in the evening, yet it shows one on the pictures! Apparently it’s been shut for a long time! Would definitely pay a bit extra and stay somewhere warm and more inviting plus clean.

The hotel rooms are nothing like the images on line. We stayed 1 night which was enough we would have found somewhere else but it was late when we arrived. The reception area was not appealing and gave an awful 1st impression. Got our key and went to our room, the decor was shocking plaster coming off the walls, window was open wouldn't shut properly, stains on carpets and lights on walls glass not fitted properly in frame. our room door lock missing and had to use chain. Bed was ok was clean and towels in bathroom clean but didn;t use bath or shower as water pressure not good only dribbled out of shower head and tap. Very musty smell in room. Room information booklet was totally incorrect as they was no food or bar and in the booklet it stated there was. very misleading. Continental breakfast was average.

Nice place with character. Location was ideal for us. Only gripes was the room was very cold and breakfast had limited choice. Upon booking in the room was warm but from that point and the next two days, the heating did not switch on leaving the bathroom damp and cold along with bedroom being very cold. I did mention the lack of heating but as the heating was ok in the hotel, front of house did not take on board my concernes.

Power failed and could not be restored. No hot water on one morning. Quite a lot of noise from other rooms. Limited breakfast each morning. Staff were nice. Room was fairly inexpensive. The actual room was fine, but no cleaning or fresh towels during the stay and single towel just got damper and more cold each morning

The hotel is in a closed down pub, no food or drink. Very dated decor and not the cleanest, stayed for 4 nights and no room made up or cleqn towels etc, had to go and ask for loo roll. Nothing in the immediate area unless you drive. In fairness i do believe it might have just been taken over they need time to turn it around

This is a budget hotel, so the saying you get what you pay for fits. The staff are very nice and accommodating - our tv didn’t work so the staff let us use the empty room next door. The property was lovely but now it is becoming tired and needs money spending on it. We paid £60 for a night which was the correct value for the room. Breakfast is basic. I did not like the fact they tried to get customers to pay £20 for a dog. Most places are around £10, so £20 is a third of the total price, felt a little greedy. If you are on a budget, it is worth staying here.

Quirky hotel with lots of character

I loved this quirky hotel. They bent over backwards to please us and although neither the bar nor the restaurant were operational they allowed us to bring drinks into the hotel and provided glasses and ice for us. the bedroom was huge and the bed was a queen bed and really comfortable. Yes there are things that could be done to improve this hotel but I loved it

Avoid - mould and stained towels

After waiting for 20 minutes for somebody to turn up and check me in, I was shown into a room that had mould and stained towels. The room also stank of smoke. I didn't even stay, immediately left and went to another hotel.

Quaint hotel perfect for a weekend gateway

I recently stayed at a charming hotel for a short break and, overall, it was a pleasant experience. However, I did encounter a few issues that could be improved upon. Firstly, finding the entrance during my late-night check-in was quite challenging due to inadequate lightning. It took me a few minutes if wandering around before I finally located the entrance, which left me a bit frustrated after a long journey. A little more illumination in the area would go a long way in enhancing the arrival experience for the guests. Once inside, I was pleasantly surprised by the quaintness of the hotel. My suite was well-appointed and provided a cozy atmosphere that made it perfect for a relaxing gateway. However, while the suite itself was great, the services offered could definitely be improved. I found the staff was friendly but lacking attentiveness at times. The reception was left unmanned and the staff wouldn't respond to the bell at the desk. The shower gel in the bathroom required topping up. Such things could have been checked before the guest's arrival. In summary, my stay was enjoyable and fulfilling, with the hotel's charming ambiance and cozy suite making it worth the trip. If the entrance visibility and staff service were addressed, this hotel could easily become a favorite for weekend gateways. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a short, peaceful break, but be prepared to navigate a few minor inconveniences.
