Excellent facilities,excellent food, particularly the Indian restaurant. Friendly and obliging staff. Superb beer garden and good well kept ales. Stairs and landing carpet could do with a makeover, other than that excellent.

The staff of just two were helpful and kind. The establishment is v tired and run down; it requires total refurbishment which would, hopefully, eliminate the pervasive musty smell.

Bad hotel. The person on duty was very slow and inefficient. He was not present in the morning when we needed to check out. The rooms were not clean and there were bed bugs in one bed. We got the bites to prove it. There was blood on some of the walls. I would suggest anyone staying here.

Room wasn't cleaned at all, all sorts of used items under the bed that did not belong to us, broken tiles on bathroom floor didn't allow to walk on it barefoot, shower was from hot to extremely hot, cobwebs all over the place. Awful state of the property, ell of damp everywhere, we had to leave after first night, it was unbearable to stay any longer

Why you have this hotel on your web site is beyond me. It is a large hotel about 20 rooms run by 2 people one in his 40's and the other in his late 20's. The staff were very pleasant but they were overworked. The 40 year old man told me he was the manager, he was also reception, chef (not in proper cooking attire) barman and general dogs body. The young man was obviously not trained in housekeeping but this was his job along with many others. The breakfast was not very nice and we paid about £23 each for it - it was all very cheap produce. I think for £400 for 3 nights we were overcharged.

First day found the hotel looking very tired in need of a full upgrade. Tools and old furniture hanging about. Not child friendly. Not very clean. Bedrooms not very clean.Bed ok. One of the towels had to be changed because it had dirty marks on it. Staff polite. First days full breakfast was very nice. But second day bacon frazzled and sausages burnt. Last day no egg? Sausage tasted off left most of it. Last night loads of shouting and banging of doors at 2am! Please dont stay here. Needs a lot of work doing to it.

After booking this hotel I found out it was haunted! Maybe I should have done a bit of research before booking but I really feel this should be stated when booking! Looks like they are getting work down stairs in the restaurant but as soon as you walk through the door to go the rooms it stinks! It’s like a musky mouldy smell, the room was even worse! With black mould on the ceiling coming down the wall right next to bed that had stains on the sheets. We ended up leaving.

The hotel seems to be going through a bit of a refurbishment and the only person there was a builder who was told there would be guests arriving. He gave me the room key, told me the front door lock wasn't working and just give it a shoulder budge to open the door and that was that....no staff or anything, just a phone number in the room incase of any problems. Came down in the morning to an empty place with no sign that anyone had been in overnight

The pictures on the site do not represent the reality of this hotel. It’s currently very run down and in need of lots of work. We stayed for 3 nights, we only had 3 towels and although we asked for more twice, were not given any and they weren’t changed during our stay. The bathroom looked new but unfinished. There was nowhere to put shampoo etc. in the shower, the floor was slippy (I bought a rubber mat for them) the toilet flush was dodgy and neither the fan or light above the mirror worked. The breakfast was dodgy and the public areas really shabby. Shame really it could be really special. I can’t recommend it and we won’t return.
