Great place for a short break

Room spacious and comfortable with extras like tea/coffee/water well stocked. Bath was nice to have but also a powerful shower. Food is good although service stops a little early - especially on Sunday. Breakfast very good - all cooked to order.

Not bad for the price

Great location, could do with a dedicated check-in desk not at the bar especially at busy service times.room very very clean but dated could do with updating throughout. Breakfast was ok but slow service, one poor lad serving on his own. Evening meals were very good.we had a room on the top floor and there was a bad smell on the landing. Overall not bad for the price.
