The room was really comfortable and clean although a little tired in some areas. Outside my room was a busy street and an off license that seemed to draw attention from visitors until gone 11:30pm! Drunk and rowdy people stood outside and smashed bottles woke me up on a couple of occasions. ##### Alastair Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### N Dec 30, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Quiet weekend away between Xmas & New year, two of us and the dog.

We did find the portions for dinner and breakfast a bit small and a bit stingy where it shouldn't have cost much to be generous - too few toasts with the pate or the cheese course (5 crackers). A bit more generosity and it would have been a perfect stay ##### Lori Stayed 1 night in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sean Feb 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Friendly welcome, great service & great food Great little hotel. Really friendly staff good bar and very good food. Breakfast was particularly good but 8am start for breakfast not ideal for business travel. Basic room was really comfortable. Again, not ideal for business travellers as there’s no desk. Minor quibbles wouldn’t stop me staying there again (& I have) ##### Sean Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew Mar 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pleasantly surprising visit Great place and superb staff.
