Breakfast and Food: Breakfast options, including a Sunday carvery, were highlighted as delicious, reasonably priced, and varied. Some guests noted the quality of meals, though a few criticized the lack of gluten-free options or the simplicity of certain dishes.

Clean and nice renovation room although small and compacted. Nice location. Parking available. Good service. If the mattress could be firmer that would be great.

Overall a great place! A really lovely stay, local to the town centre. The car park was tiny due to some on going work on the premises, but to have parking in a town centre hotel. The bed was comfortable, the facilities in the room great and despite a slight issue in the room on arrival, this was sorted very quickly and efficiently. Breakfast was amazing too!
