We stayed here twice recently. The first time we were kept awake by some very drunk & noisy people who’d attended a wake & stayed outside drinking till 5am. Not sure what happened but there was blood on the patio in the morning. The hotel receptionist handled it very well, after the event, & we happily returned. Nice food.

Breakfast was not good, but everything else was…
Everything was great until breakfast. Very unfriendly staffer. I asked if we could have cheese on our breakfast sandwich…no. Do you have any potatoes? No. The sandwiches were dry and unappealing, but the attitude was worse. 2 breakfast sandwiches with no condiments or sides was 35 pounds. Dinner the night before was delicious and every other staff member was wonderful. Stay at this charming inn, but eat breakfast elsewhere.

Breakfast a flop
On the whole a great stay room was comfortable staff friendly location great. The only problem was the breakfast my partner has to be gluten free and she doesn’t eat much at all I don’t like black pudding or mushrooms which we informed them yep you’re right mine came with black pudding but no mushrooms my partner who just wanted 1poached egg on one GF slice toast got 2 eggs with 2 toast next day I ended up with no black pudding but mushrooms partner again ended up with still 2 gf toast but just the one egg only after telling them twice as they were going to add bacon. Didn’t do breakfast the last day. Otherwise a lovely place to stay yes we will return but no breakfast

The lady on reception was a bit cross with me as I was trying to check in after 21:00, and she'd not been able to get through on my mobile earlier to check I was still coming - my apologies! Comfortable but very warm room, OK breakfast, very tight and limited parking on site, down a narrow drive right by the sign and immediately adjacent to the public carpark. Quiet town, nice hotel, but not really for me.

Overall we had a great stay. Two little negatives. 1. Car parking can be a problem but nothing can be done about it. 2. It was a pity the dinner menu was the same each night. Staff were some of the nicest we have ever experienced.

The Wisteria vibe is more like a B&B than a hotel (in the best ways). Super friendly & welcoming staff and quaint facilities. We had a wonderful lunch in the pub and an excellent breakfast in the dining room. Our room was clean and comfortable. We loved the Wisteria and will be back!
