To expensive for what it was
We had four nights in this hotel. The first room we were in had a terrible damp smell in it and the previous occupants empty shower gel etc was still in the shower cubicle. We asked to be moved room, which we were without a problem. The second room was ok, although the bed sheets were clean, the bathroom and room it’s self could of been cleaner. Again there were empty wrappers in a draw from previous occupants. The shower tray filled with water and overflowed onto the bathroom floor. Over the four nights there was no house keeping touched our room- disappointing to say the least. We felt the cost did not reflect the standard of the room, it did not even include breakfast.

Filthy caravan !
Please be aware that we ended up in a caravan ,sneaking named caravan room . £100.00 per night . No problem with caravan but when you look at website you are show pictures of rooms in side hotel no caravans . The main problem was it was absolutely filthy something dead on floor in loung carpet covers in dog hair really bad smell and something growing from wall in bedroom . Had to find alternative accommodation as we could not stay there .

It's a country pub, a bit rough and in need of some renovation. Room was fine, if basic, area is not the most exciting but if you are passing through it's a good cheap option.
