We stayed here for a weekend, and found the staff very friendly and helpful. The room was fairly newly furnished and very clean. We travelled with our dog, so although he was not allowed in the room (he slept in our car), it helped that the rest of the hotel was very dog friendly. The restaurant meals were good, with a wide choice of dishes on the menu. Only minor quibbles were : shower was in the bath so meant you needed to climb over the side of the bath, and also the bathroom floor was creaky.

Room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was rubbish. As there is nothing around, which was not a problem, it was disappointing that Bar was closing at 10pm, with last orders at 9.30pm.
