Stairs were hard to get up to on top floor.my daughter advised them she was bringing a baby but they never mentioned there were no lifts to her floor so I had to swap rooms with her as I was booked in to floor below.room was too small to fit a travelcot in in anyhow so if I hadn't of swapped rooms it wouldn't of fit in

Breakfast room floor was filthy.the muck was just swept to the side of the stairs

Amazing value stay in a beautiful hotel.

9.0

Beautiful hotel in such a convenient location close to A1 if travelling up and down the country. Quiet and stylish. Our room had great quality fittings, loved the lighting and comfy bed. Ate at the restaurant in the evening, lots of choice and food was fresh and delicious.

Cooked food at breakfast could have been better (eggs/ mushrooms were not good)

Lack of grounds around. Better signage. Not everyone uses sat nav!
