The hotel is good value for money very conveniently positioned. The breakfast was excellent with very friendly staff. As previous reviewers have said parts of the hotel could do with a bit of an upgrade but all things considered it was fine

We have stayed at the kings head a few times now. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. The food is excellent. The rooms are very comfortable and have what you need for a lovely stay. We definately love the resident cat! Would definately recommend anyone to stay here.

Lovely break away.
The hotel itself is a little dated and could do with updating however for the price you can't really complain. The staff are all lovely and very friendly and attentive. The food is really good, I recommend the steak, it was so tender. We took 2 dogs with us and they were made a fuss of too. This is our 2nd time there and we have booked again already for November.
