Have stayed recently twice. One in June with my husband and most recently friends up from London on holiday. We enjoyed our stay and so did our friends. Both our rooms were lovely. Staff were welcoming and helpful. Found our rooms were very quiet and had good sleep. Lovely breakfast with something to suit all tastes. Only slight criticism was price of drink at the bar but only we don't often go to hotels so this might be normal.

The place is so lovely and welcoming, staff are attentive and so friendly. The choice of food was excellent and what we ordered was delicious . The only thing that let it down a bit was the room wasn’t as clean as it could have been and the next day clean wasn’t done properly. We spoke to manager and she sorted it straight away. Will definitely stay again . Beautiful four poster bed was nice suprise. We joined the Best Western membership that lets you know about offers etc . All in all thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay.

Room was unbearablly hot, no heating was on and there is only an old fan in the room to try keep it cool..Think I was above the spa area and this could be the cause of the relentless heat...There is a fairly awkward arrangement between the bar and restaurant for food and the tv in the bar is rather small and poorly placed. There is a decent selection of largers and nice outdoor sitting area, rooms were clean and serived daily...The tv in the room is of a good size and larger than the one in the lounge bar..

I booked this hotel a week in advance of my stay I booked a deluxe double room for two as my wife was doing business at the same time I was. When I checked in a young man was on the desk , very polite he asked my name and started checking me in when a woman the size of a small village butted in. She said she had put me in an easy access room. When I got to the room I was discussed at the state of the room . Even if I was disabled and I'm not the room was dirty the carpets are heavily stained. The bathroom ? Well the shower only reaches 5 ft and to look in the mirror I could only see my tummy . All the equipment was there if I was disabled. Then I had to call my wife to ask her to book into another hotel . When I went to ask for another room she grunted at me in a very nasty way and told me they were booked up . Not forgetting ide booked this hotel a week prior. The hotel looks amazing from outside but it's like stepping back into the eighties, very dated very dirty. And the small village who delt with me could do with a cleaning job. Not a very good front of door staff. Would I recommend this hotel ? NO ! I've stayed in better youth hostels. Be warned !
