March 2025Stayed for 2 nights over the weekend. Had an absolute fantastic time. Rooms were brilliant, facilities we're outstanding. Staff we're out of this world couldn't do enough for you. Special mention to Dave who made our stay an 11/10. When we come back we will definitely be coming back here!

December 2024We would have given it 3.5 stars if we could. For the price you pay this is a good hotel and we would stay here again. It's a ten minute walk to the centre of town. Parking is available on site (charged at £10 a night when we stayed). The rooms are not luxurious but have everything you would need and cleanliness is fine on the whole (although some of the harder to reach areas were slightly grotty). The staff were all friendly and helpful. As well as coffee making facilities in the room, hot drinks and water are available 24/7 in the dining area free of charge, unfortunately however the coffee was truly awful - take your own sachets! Breakfast was fine however on busier days the choice can get a bit sparse towards the end of service and the veggie hot breakfast options are a little limited (no veggie sausages).
