Very old property and a little tired but the room was clean, bedding was clean and fresh, plenty of white fluffy towels again clean and fresh. Full English breakfast cooked to order. Check in staff, bar staff and breakfast staff could not do enough for us. Top marks all round and would recommend 😊

The pub at the King's Arms is excellent; they have a brilliant chef, and breakfast is included. On the down side, the room was extremely small, and the sink isn't in the bathroom.

Nice enough for a short stay

Nice enough rooms and pub. There were a few locals in there when we got there. Staff in the evening were very friendly, the breakfast crew not so much.

The property is a very old coaching inn. It was spotlessly clean but the shower was faulty and we were given 1 bath towel for 2 people. We felt the plinth for the shower stuck out dangerously for when using the bathroom. Very comfortable bed. Friendly, helpful staff. Good breakfast. Good value for money.

Room good but very cold on the first night with no extra blanket available. Heating put on after speaking with staff the following day. Booking in system wasn't working so I had to come back a bit later to book in and collect key. Breakfast choice good and very tasty. Staff very friendly and helpful.

4/10 Fair

This Hotel is a night club!

This venue is a live music venue and nightclub Friday & Saturday. The venue are up front about this and list it appropriately on their website but hotels.com do not. I had gone based on hotels.coms information which is miss leading. It was only at check in I discovered this, over 150miles from home. I am not exaggerating, I am not being ott, they turn into a night club from 9pm - 3am every Friday and Saturday. Music thudding until 3am. Our room was above the outside smoking shelter in a Friday night …. Not great. The venue is tired and was undergoing renovations when we visited. Room was okay. Staff were friendly, attentive & polite. Breakfast was great and allergy friendly.

The atmosphere was young and buzzy, not the place for a quiet weekend , as disco Friday and Saturday until 3.00am and live band Sunday evening until 11.00pm !! Unfortunately plug in bathroom sink did not work, and the pillows and duvet were of poor quality. No storage or hanging facilities in room, so fortunate we were only staying one night.
