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.

Staff were all excellent and very welcoming. Food esp the breakfast was superb.
Room was far to hot - had to have all windows open and radiators off - can not be good for the enviroment!
Found a few (10 ish) clothes moths in the room, so had to hot wash all clothes on return home. This was reported and I would like feedback on the actions of the hotel
