Reviews and Ratings
I stayed at the hotel, which had ground floor rooms facing the high street pavement. The accommodation included a bedroom, a separate sitting room, and a well-equipped bathroom with multiple wash basins and a great shower. While some aspects left a bad taste, overall, I had an okay experience but probably wouldn't choose to return.
The hotel rooms were nicely decorated and clean, but unfortunately, they were very overrated compared to the internet description. The service was wonderful, with a romantic welcome drink on arrival and staff being really friendly and helpful. The location was let down by the noise from the road but was great for our family visit. The dining experience offered a delicious variety but had some inconsistency on different days. The facilities were well maintained with amenities cooked to order.
