Wonderful

The staff were really welcoming and friendly. I had a lovely spacious room with a modern bathroom. Also, everything I needed in terms of bottled water, tea refills everday... Excellent value for money. Breakfast was lovely too.

− Nothing.

Lovely pub in a good location

Excellent value for money. Lovely location. Spacious accommodation. Plenty of seating both inside and outside. Our bedroom was a brilliant size and well decorated. Staff were very friendly and welcoming.

− Only downside was on a sunny hot day it was really hot in our room. With only a small fan and no air conditioning to keep it cool it made sleeping uncomfortable. However, it was exceptional climate conditions and would not normally be an issue.

Not a good experience

5.0

The meal was nice

− The room was not what we expected after booking a premium room, 2 windows in the room, one with a broken blind so permanent down and the other window broken so couldn’t be opened. Bathroom very dark, recommend taking a torch in with you especially if you need to find anything. Shower was hanging off the wall but I managed to fix that. No spare toilet roll, no handwash, I’m assuming this was due to the staff not being able to see! Overall not a good experience and not what we expected after eating at the restaurant numerous times. We will definitely be finding somewhere else to stay when in the area.

Everything was good

− The lighting in the bathroom was too dark making it difficult to shower. Maybe they need to look at air-conditioning going forward

Decent stay for a Night

Stylish venue , generous sized rooms, comfortable bed , well equipped ( except that my table lamp didn’t work and there wasn’t a fan ( and it was hot hot hot!!)

− The big issue is that we didn’t feel valued as hotel guests , it was more of a pub focused venue…. We didn’t book directly either and so didn’t qualify for breakfast in the price , lesson learnt but ok fair enough maybe? BUT the paid for prices for breakfast were very inflated and we even had to pay for a cup of coffee in the breakfast area which felt outrageous! If we had known this before , we would have made our own coffees in our rooms which had kettles, tea & coffee etc and brought them downstairs to the breakfast room ! I did explain that we felt ripped off to the venue but they just smiled ! Also , our rooms overlooked the car park which was quite noisy with late goodbyes from pub clients and the car park lights were left on all night which shone into our rooms
