The staff are really welcoming and friendly. The facilities are a bit rundown and could do with a lick of paint. The menu choice is a bit limited and the restaurant times are short. The rooms are basic but clean and other than a hairdryer everything else is provided.

Avoid!
Dated room with peeling wallpaper, lukewarm water, and small uncomfortable bed. Certainly not worth £90. Dinner was shocking, and can only be described as a congealed bowl of slob. Meals were returned to the kitchen uneaten, but the £26 were not refunded. Breakfast was ok, but served on a dirty table with last night's drink stains on it. The only saving grace were the friendly and welcoming staff.

Great food - rooms need work
Last minute trip with the grandkids. Lovely pub/restuarant, food delicious - rooms basic and in need of maintenance and mattresses definately need upgrading!. The management and staff were lovely. This place has the makings of being a top class establishment - just needs some TLC from the owners.

Wasn't anything really to like wasn't worth what we paid , very dated, curtains hanging off tracks, worn out towels stairs to rooms needed a good hoover, Wasn't a great choice for breakfast unles you liked chocolate cereals. Bathroom had nowhere to hang anything and you needed to be 7 ft to see through mirror

The worst hotel ever. Horrible stay.
Absolutely horrendous experience. No TV in the room and no working WIFI. The worlds most uncomfortable bed. Idiots making a hell of a noise until the early hours. Awful beer and rubbish food. And worse- paid for breakfast. Waited 40 mins and no show by the staff. So no breakfast, even though I paid for it. Worst hotel I have ever stayed in.

The cleanliness if the room was good but walking through the hotel furniture and carpets need cleaning and then the standard would be a lot better
