Lovely hotel, quaint & quirky, with low ceilings in places but not an issue. Pets were welcome. We had breakfast included and it was delicious, everything you needed. The beds were very comfortable. The bathroom looked to be newly renovated.

This hotel outside appearance is uninspiring, however inside the bar & restaurant it is welcoming with a roaring fire lovely on a very cold day. Food is excellent, particularly the breakfast, with an interesting assortment. Our room was a good size & thankfully near the car park as when you access the hotel through the back door it is a route march to find reception.

The only negative I have was we stayed in room 8 so practically every guest staying had to walk passed our room. The floor boards oustdie creeked everything a guest walked passed our room. We must have been above the bar a it was noisy until quite late cleaning up.

LISA

Disliked: Cleanliness
We were upgraded to a luxury room. There was nothing luxury about it, very tired, tiles around the bath cracked and lifting, wall behind the bath water damage. The room looked nothing like the pictures, it was tiny, dark and gloomy. I understand it is an old building, but this room should definitely not be classed as luxury.
