Woolpack Inn

Guests appreciate the friendly staff, delicious breakfast, clean rooms, and convenient location near the university. Some also mention the good facilities and comfortable, spacious rooms.

We stayed here one night in a twin room very clean comfortable and quiet. The bedrooms are in a separate building from the pub. Plenty of free parking WiFi in the rooms bathroom was nice and spacious. Breakfast was included cereals toast and fruit and a really good home made hot breakfast

Booking in to this place was okay. Food was okay from bar for a pub. Bed and breakfast we stayed for 4 days. Breakfast was not that good, if you did not want the small fry up, all you had was cereal or toast , with a cheap yogurt, fruit juice.pre booked breakfast night before. Thursday night Quiz night, we was told you can eat in the restaurant but you have to be out of the seats by about 8pm, because the quiz takes over, and they all like the same tables. Friday was a Jazz evening, went over early to eat, booked my table on wednesday, young lady had trouble finding it, thought we were going to go else where, but lucky she did find my booking. Not in restaurant side all tables taken by people waiting for Jazz to start, we got put on a table basically in the games area of the pub. Husband sat on a settee which he had to use 2 cushions so he could reach the table, not ideal for an 81 year old man. We had the carvery which was nice, we left early again when we had intentions to stay for the show, but we did not feel welcome, this feeling was with us for the whole visit. Saturday morning was a gentlemans breakfast where the pub was booked , we was told it was a buffet style this morning, the breakfast my husband had was terrible , a manky sausage he left in the tray, and the rest was warm and dried out. When we walked into breakfast this morning we saw the 2 cleaners next to the landlord or owner not sure what he was, he looked over to the ladies and said something, and one of them said they are staying here, this man had no idea we spent 4 days at £100 a night, and spent over 200 pound in the bar on food and drink. In the end we felt lets get out of here, we left sunday morning did not bother stopping for breakfast. We have been in this pub several times before for a meal, but would never go back . Accommodation side feels like a side line which they dont really care about. Staying there for 4 nights without a ny acknowledgement from the owner or landlord , we feel the experiance we had was far from 5 stars. If i could have given a zero i would have done. So this place needs to realise it is not only the locals he should look after but holiday makers as well, hopefully they take my comments on board for the future, and treat everyone the same. But I would not hokd my breath
