What a fabulous welcome we received when we arrived, the staff are wonderful, and will do anything to help. Food is fabulous, decor well thought out. If you would like week-end life you will get it here, We will return mid week , as the hotel is ideal for us. A tad loud at the weekend, but thats us. We will definately be back. mid-week.

Not what but who? Julie is a wonderful hostess as well as publican and jobbing builder. Renovations are coming on and perhaps in a couple of years the Hotel will be the pride of the north Still some teething problems with the works

Very friendly staff, recently refurbished rooms, good value, good food if a little limited in choice and dining venues (it basically has one large bar/dining area). Other than the comment about dining venues, nothing. I would return when next in the area.

The staff were excellent, tending to any need we had, even fired up the kitchen just for us, food was good also, room was immaculate and the beds where so soft and comfy. A tad noisy, but this was from outside and it was a Saturday night, you will find this in any town with bars tho, actually made us want to go out. haha.
