Accommodation was very good for the price. Very limited menu choice needs reviewing (annoying part was they did not remove pips from the wedges or halves of lemon put on plate. come on chef.) Could do with regular sweeping of entrances where the ashtrays are and TLC of the exterior such as sorting out yhe window frames with a lick of paint. The fire escape stairwells could do with sweep too. Staff could do with being a little bit more cheerful (manager please ensure their welfare and adequate pay and working conditions). Over all a pleasant stay and i would return and take up the full facilities available. Generally a happy and pleasant stay over 2 nights.

Average at Best
Stayed with my wife and 8 year old daughter in room 92, which is in desperate need of a complete renovation. Room was not cleaned properly, carpets didn’t look like it had been hoovered, bathroom floors dirty and bathtub covered in hair! There were two big functions on the night we stayed, one of which was right beneath our bedroom. Extremely loud music until midnight. We could have been warned about the functions as we checked in. Checkin process was poor no information provided, no information about the restaurant, bar or spa in the rooms. A real shame, as this is a beautiful building with great potential.

Not as it appears on the pictures. Booked a twin room, were given a small double. Dated unclean room. External door outside the room (to the outbuilding we were in) rattled all night in the wind as had no latch. Shower was cold. Informed hotel staff who were not concerned or did not offer feedback. Would not recommend booking.

Tired and dirty hotel
Nice looking building from outside but that was as good as it got. The hotel is tired and has not been maintained. Basics like cleaning are not done well. Rooms aren’t sound proof and we were awoken both nights - once by other guests and once by security trying to gain entrance to an adjacent room. We read the prior reviews and wouldn’t have booked if there were any other options near this location but there isn’t so not sure of best option if you are reading this!

Amazing accessible accommodation
We stayed overnight to celebrate my special birthday. I had an accessible room which was absolutely perfect for my needs, my family had an adjoining room in case I needed support. Anyone with concerns about their mobility, access to showering facilities etc should be reassured that this hotel will cater for your needs! The atmosphere was warm and friendly, everyone was helpful and welcoming, we had a stress free relaxing break. The food was delicious, served in a relaxed atmosphere, we will definitely be returning!
Accessible wet room to support people with mobility problems.

Nice room. Great service. Good facilities. Good location off the motorway but can be a little noisy depending on room location. Wi-fi in room was very patchy, dropping out so often I couldn’t watch a movie on streaming. I like this hotel, I’ve stayed a number of times and will again.
