"We had an excellent stay at the Mauldron Hotel, it was located 3 minutes from the train station and a 18 minute walk to Leezes Park where we were heading. We were able to check in 1 hour early which was fantastic. The room was huge and nipping clean. Very comfortable bed and was very quiet. The buffet breakfast was fantastic. Everything from cereal, yoghurt, porridge, meats, cheese, bread, hot food, bacon sausage etc. I would highly recommend staying here, we certainly will stay again!"
