"From check in to check out the staff were amazing. Very helpful at all times. Lovely pool and gym & bar area. Rooms were clean and comfortable but need a little refresher & some updating, but it's an old building. Breakfast was pretty good apart from a cremated sausage & few minor issues. Overall a good selection of items to help yourself from plus a menu choice for cooked breakfast including kippers! Excellent hash browns! 😁"

"The hotel overall was good. Me and my wife was here for a short stay. The staff was very friendly, breakfast was lovely. We had to check out early as my wife had work to do and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. The only thing I'd say could be improved here is that they can have AC put in at the hotel because it does get hot inside during hot weather"
