Food not up to expectations
Food in the bar was not up to expectations. Not even up to good pub food standards. I had salad niscoise and the tuna was full of sinew and barely edible . Not the best meal we have had

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Every thing was as one would expect from a hotel. Breakfast was expensive at £19.95 per person. But. We were given a menu, ordered and served. I personally prefer to be served my meals. Only niggle I had , I had to get my Coffee from a machine across the room. I would have preferred a pot brought to the table as my friends Tea was. Fried egg was over cooked, brown crispy ring around the outside edge. So I chose poached eggs the next morning which were cooked perfectly. All in all a lovely memorable stay. Location perfect for a walk into town. It was a lot cheaper to book online than call direct.

Amazing and super friendly
The hotel was very clean and beautiful. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly and gave us a complementary bottle of Prosecco for my girlfriend’s birthday. They were always open to giving suggestions on sights to see and things to do and the room was very comfortable and pleasant
