Spacious and clean rooms

Spacious and well lit rooms, comfortable beds. And excellent cooked to order hot breakfast. Slight negative is that the room needs good noise proofing, as we were disturbed by the noise from the other rooms and street.

Very comfortable

I had a single room which was a good size, comfortable and furnished with an armchair, desk, chest of drawers and a wardrobe, which is more than you get in a good many hotels. There was also a good sized and well equipped shower room. My only criticism is their choice of coffee, which could be improved considerably. All the parts of the hotel that I visited were scrupulously clean and there was a friendly and efficient team on hand 24/7.

A good location if travelling by train. Not much in the way of bar service and it was hit and miss as to when the bar closed

Pleasant stay, really good size room. Only criticism is that the road it’s on is very noisy but this may have been because of the location of our room.

Disappointing

A little disappointing, I understand the hotel has just been purchased, however considering this it took a while to figure out that the hotel is now under a different name. The hotel needs work which is expected, however the fact the restaurant is not open for evening meals was just annoying.

New Ownership

We had problem finding the place as the name on the hotel was different We went past it three times We had to change rooms three times as the central heating was very loud and rattling dreadfully The maintenance man was not working that day No menu for breakfast just asked what cooked food we would like We had to screw the head of the shower up as it was not flowing properly and the mirror in the bathroom was so high I could only see my forehead in it The manager was very apologetic as they had only just taken over the hotel

Business trip as I was training at Head UK. Convenient as it was close enough to be within walking distance so no reason to move my vehicle once I had parked.

Comfortable, tidy and good value

The staff were great. Really made my stay better. Last minute booking to avoid camping in the torrential weather and the girls working were very helpful with everything. Had an awesome night sleep. Reasonably priced for the comfort provided and breakfast was great! Would stay again.
