Welcoming friendly staff throughout the hotel. Warm, comfortable and spotless room. Good disabled access and parking. Superb breakfast choice with first class ingredients. The cooked breakfast was the best I’ve tasted in a long time. A very enjoyable stay to be repeated soon.

Good sized room, bed comfortable. Staff very friendly. Plenty parking. However I really think a 4 star hotel should have bottled water in the rooms and also biscuits to go with the tea/coffee.

Listed as a 4* hotel but yet small things like no tissues, hand cream or shower hats in the bathroom. Glasses not changed or fresh water on day 2 of our stay. The bed was just about made - the sheet wasn’t flatten so we had to make our own bed. Won’t be back - to dear for what you get.
