I stayed in room 65. The room was clean the staff were really helpful. The breakfast was well presented and really nice. We ate there once in the evening and it was great. The spa was really nice. We both had a massage felt really relax. As anyone would tell you there lots to do in the local area, but also good to just relax. I recomend booking the treatment in advance of your stay as its hard to get hold off the massuer.

Fantastic breakfast. Family room was spacious and newly redecorated. Unfortunately we didn’t get our room cleaned as the house keeping staff thought we had checked out. Toilet was dodgy. But the fantastic facilities and food definitely outweighed the toilet and housekeeping. Definitely will be back with the family. Thanks for another fab stay.

6/10 Good

Just an average stay. Hotel feels rather unloved. Staff seem to be going through the motions rather than engaging with guests. Plenty of nice easy free parking (although its £30 per charge for an electric vehicle). Rooms pleasant but just feel unfinished. Breakfast is good but not had bacon quite so overcooked in a long time. Personally, wouldn't stay again, there are lots of better quality establishments in this price range nearby.

Room 31 was clean and tidy, but the shower was too hot, and a leaking tap. The room we were moved to (127) was also very clean and tidy. The staff were very nice and helpful. The hot tub/jaccuzi could have been warmer. When we went in it was not very warm.

Happy Family Stay.

I was quite surprised how beautiful the place was, our room was very spacious and comfortable. I was very happy with the two 50 inch TV. The bathroom was clean and tidy. The kids were very happy with our time there.

4/10 Fair

Sorry but didn't enjoy this stay as the room was cold and situated in some strange converted building behind the main hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful, firstly putting the heating on and then bringing an additional plug in heater, we did not enjoy the room it was too cold, had a roller blind which we had closed permanently due to ground floor location, so overall was very disappointed.

We stayed in a very spacious family room on the top floor which was great , it was lovely & clean with comfortable beds. The staff were very friendly. The pool was great for the teenagers and a nice little spa area. The hotel does look old fashioned and needs a revamp but with that said I can see some areas have been updated and overall it doesn’t effect having a good stay here!

The rooms are a good size but remember this is a traditional hotel so there is lots of old wood and floral curtains. The pool is a good size with Jacuzzi. Food is ok but cheap so you get what you pay for. Breakfast was ok but could be better. The staff are very friendly especially the chap with the tattoos but they are over stretched. The chap with the shirt on is very grumpy.
