Nice get away Lovely hotel with a fantastic breakfast. Lots of nice touches in the room with drinks choices, and coffee machine. Comfortable bed and although hot in the room as the heating was on full when we got there, there was a fan. Found the shower difficult to control and was also very hot. No major complaints and would definitely stay again.

A very charming place, hundreds of years history throughout. Friendly staff too! It was hard to avoid hitting my head against the low door post of the shower door, obviously build for shorter people, and there was an issue with the hot water (there wasn't any). But that must have been an incident. I will try again next time!

Great food options both for evening meal & breakfast. The bed was very comfortable (room 24) however the bathroom extractor fan took an eternity to go off & it was noisy! The fan itself needed a good hoover. Shower also disappointing very little pressure, difficult to get a good temperature. Decor tired. The staff were very friendly & helpful. The tea/coffee room facilities were excellent. The flask of milk & water very much appreciated. Thank you.

Good location and service, room needs updating Great staff, tasty food and breakfast. Only disappointment was the room which needs a little TLC. Bathroom tired, room was quite cold too. Very little soundproofing, could hear everything that was said in room below. Bathrobes a nice touch and comfy beds. Good location though and cant fault the service.
