Lack of Real Ale Available
The only Issue we had was the lack of ales at the bar. Come Saturday evening, there was no real ale available at the hotel bar. This prevented us from eating at the hotel in the evenings.

Very underwhelming
Our stay didnât start well having to wait ages for someone to come to reception to check us in. Because we had a family room we were in a different building across the road. The room was big but wasnât in the best condition. It all needs a deep clean and a lick of paint. In the evening we had a meal in the restaurant and again due to lack of staff had to wait more than an hour for our food to arrive. We felt so sorry for the waitress who was also the barmaid. She was having to do both jobs running around everywhere but still had a smile on her face. At breakfast all there was to have was toast, cereal or a full English. Very limited. No fruit or pastries. Again had to wait about 40 minutes for it to arrive. Very disappointing stay.

The staff are very friendly and helpful . The room was quite clean and spacious . I loved the little biscuit packets with the tea / coffee service in the room and the cute little soap bar . It is a very traditional and old fashioned hotel with lovely amenities and quaint paintings in the room .

Needs fixing up.
Hotel requires lots of repair and maintenance as water damage in places and bits falling down. Pity as this could be a nice property with lots of historic character.

Holiday trip surprise not great one though!!!
Booked for 2 days family trip. I had booked 1 double and 2 twin beds but I got room with 3 twin beds only! I had shuttle between few options and had to settle down with 3 single bed room. We ourselves had to take bed from another room and arrange it. Next day room service was also not done and finally shifted to the chosen room on 2nd day evening. Staff was friendly but helpless at times.

Good value budget hotel
Convenient location apart from being on a steep hill. However all the bus trips we made stopped at the top of the hill. Nicely decorated and comfortable bed. Ate evening meal on three occasions, which were all good quality and value, but menu limited. All in all, the stay was good value for a budget hotel
