Good parking for the area. Reception, restaurant and bar have had a referb but rooms are in need of complete referb. On arrival our bathroom had not been cleaned and in a bit of a state, ( not very happy 🤔) however we went to reception to complain, Stuart the receptionist was first class very polite and apologetic and found us another room. Good breakfast. Again I point out that the rooms are in need of a good overhaul.

Staff very friendly but the Hotel is not clean, carpet areas are dirty.The room was a single and again carpet was dirty and the room looked very tired. I had stayed here years ago and its been taken over by new management/owners so not the same standard as before. I opted to stay here over others in the area and regret it.
