I booked this hotel because it said there was a bar an restaurant. Unfortunately both were closed, which on a rainy and stormy night was less than ideal. I wouldn’t have booked if I had known in advance that I wouldn’t be able to get dinner.

A Room with a View Part of the Sure Collection of Best Western. Really nice setting with 2 pubs directly across the road for dining options. My room was on the ground level and looked directly on to the car park so the car was only a few feet from the door which was really convenient. Really nice and friendly staff and very helpful. The room was really well decorated, up to date and clean. A nice big, comfy bed and double headed shower. There was a lovely view of the river which ran outside of the hotel. Breakfast was really well cooked and got the day off to the best start. Great value for money stay with only a couple of minor things stopping a 5 out of 5 review but would definitely look to stay here again.
