Staff were outstanding as usual, the room was a little dated and could do with a net curtain for outside privacy and a lighter light. But other than that wonderful stay.

Excellent value for money - superb restaurant on site and breakfast was fantastic. Plenty of parking but access very steep and can be tricky with uneven surface. Lighting went out in the shower (circuit/blown bulb) so had to use the torch on my iPhone

Liked: Cleanliness
Reception staff was welcoming and polite. Room could do with redecorating, especially the bathroom. Glad I didn’t pay full price for the room I got. Walls seem to be pretty thin too. Bed was comfortable though and managed to get a decent sleep whilst the hotel was quiet. Served its purpose.
