No kettle in room for tea - coffee machine no good for making tea. Could do with blackout curtains.

Pretty rooms, car parking available, good food and friendly staff.

Found the menu overpriced with not a lot of choice particularly for a borderline vegetarian who doesn't like celeriac! We had a very nice meal for a cheaper price in a nearby pub. The breakfast was ok but the sourdough bread was far too chunky and hard for us. Oh for an ordinary slice of toast!

Nice bedroom and staff but please tell your bar staff not to pour the drinks before they reach the table. I asked for no ice but my tomato juice was already poured over the ice and it was also a Big Tom which is too spicy for me. I then had a Frobisher fruit juice which was also about to be poured over the ice before the waitress stepped in.Annoyingly I was charged for the original juice which was poured away!

Was happy with all of it.

Really large room (we stayed in Room 1) and huge en suite. Staff very friendly and helpful.

The room we had was next to a very noisy fan so our sleep was very broken. The shower was hot and cold couldn't get a level temperature.

The bed was comfortable and the food at night and the breakfast were very nice

It says a 4* hotel but it's really a pub with rooms so a little misleading. The room I was in was right over the main pub and until diners / patrons left at 11pm was noisy and the green emergency light in the room was really bright

The pub itself was lovely, staff were great and the food was excellent. Both dinner and breakfast were superb. The sheets were crisp and the bed comfortable.

Bedroom advertised balcony it didn’t have one but nevertheless the room was nice.

Food was lovely and portions just right coming back for the roast as word of mouth says it’s best around.

The toilet was in a small corner so was a bit hard to use at ease. There were no tea cups or tea in the room but was too tired to worry the staff about it. There was a function outside our room which was quite noisy up until around 10pm.

The room was lovely and clean, the bed was comfy and slept well. The breakfast was really good and the staff were very nice and helpful.

The hotel is very noisy are the rooms are located above the pub so on a morning you can hear everything downstairs. Which is understandable but given the £180 a night price it does mean you can not have a lie in on a morning. Also going into my room there was an unflushed toilet where I was greeted with someone else's bowel movement - Not a great start. The furniture has cracks in the bedrooms in the top of the mirrored furniture the glass was cracked.

The rooms are nice but needs some updating. We stayed in a room with mirrored furniture and there was cracks in this.

Several things. The heating was unpredictable. The bar and restaurant were cold but our bedroom was so hot and we couldn’t turn the heating off during the night. The shower was faulty and the water ran cold then hot, cold then hot. The worst thing was when we came down to breakfast. No front of house staff had turned up so the poor chef was cooking breakfast, clearing tables and taking orders. There was no one available to take payment when we checked out so we had to leave our details so the hotel could contact us when a manager arrived. It was a complete shambles to be honest.

The property was quirky and the food was good

I reported on checking out that when I tried to make a coffee in my room before breakfast, there was no kettle. No real problem , but the member of staff simply said, “Yes, it was broken a couple of days ago.” No apology. No explanation as to why it hadn’t been replaced. Left a bad taste in the mouth after an otherwise pleasant stay.

Warm, clean, well-furnished room, very comfortable bed; bar and waiting staff friendly and helpful. Dinner was delicious and attractively presented. Breakfast was excellent.

Bathroom was very clean but shower was difficult to adjust and control temperature. The floor became very wet which posed a risk of slipping.

Excellent breakfast served by Helen who was lovely.

The bright green emergency exit light on the wall by the door kept us awake. This was reflected in the picture that was hanging on the wall by the window. In the end we hung one of our dressing gowns over the light...which we could still see through the dressing gown...so that was ok if there was an emergency. The pop-up plug in the basin does not work properly - so the water drains away even when the plug is pushed down. Some of the information in the booklet in the room is incorrect...such as 'Not requiring a code to access the internet' - which we did actually need. And the 'check-out time' was different to the actual check-out time.

Our evening meals were excellent. Breakfast was also very good. The staff were friendly and efficient. Our room was comfortable. The was no kettle in our room (only a coffee maker) so if we had wanted a cup of tea we would have had to ask for a kettle. (There were only 2 tea bags in the caddy).

There were some odd things about the hotel that may have been down to the outgoing manager, perhaps? A new manager started the day we left, and he appeared to be managing a far from ideal setup left by the outgoing manager. Breakfast was a choice of 1 of 5 options only with Juice and tea or coffee. We opted for a cooked breakfast and dared to ask (since the menu stated you could have only one option and I didn't want to get put in the stocks) if we could have some cereal or yoghurt. The new manager was obliging and brought us what appeared to be the Continental option, which was more than we asked for and slightly embarrassing. Some Croissants also arrived very late and unexpectedly since we hadn't ordered them, so we took these away in a container provided by the manager! Paying was certainly the most aggravating experience I have had in my years of travelling. Despite the presence of 3 modern payment machines and the manager at reception, the hotel was unable to take a card payment before we left. This was resolved after numerous phone calls both ways while we travelling, which was most inconvenient. I did offer to pay via an instant bank transfer as well, but this offer was turned down by the manager who clearly needed payment by card on the day of leaving. We would probably not stay at this hotel again unless assured of a choice of continental breakfast as well as a cooked to order option. This variety of breakfast is readily available even in the more basic hotels we visit.

The hotel is well presented and clean. The staff were welcoming and upgraded us to a better room on arrival as they were quiet, which was great. The breakfast provided was of good quality if limited in scope (see dislikes) and the service good. The car park was convenient, and the bathroom was very modern with a great power shower. The bed was comfortable, and the size of the room was adequate but not generous.

Lack of coffee machine in the room, and no turndown or just refreshing the refreshments was a bit of a shame. The fire escape light too was so distracting it was hard to sleep. Seems odd to have to block out the green light with a coat to not be kept awake. Some of the furniture was also damaged. For the price you’d sort of expect just a little more.

The staff, especially on the first night, were excellent. Friendly and helpful. Food was great too, though perhaps another option for vegetarians so you don’t have the same things each day but the quality was excellent. Also appreciated that despite the bar being open and busy, music was quietened at a reasonable time for those needing an early night.

annoying fire safety light in room that glowed green all night and disturbed my sleep. Room furniture not as good as it could have been for business traveller - needs a chair and table sufficient to use a laptop.

outstanding dinner and breakfast

I'd rather have a kettle in the room with some fresh milk rather than a nespresso machine.

A warm welcome. Frank was particularly accommodating and welcoming! The breakfast was hearty and delicious. Supper was nice too. Great ales.

I found the room very warm, it didn’t help that it was a warm weekend. Wondered if a fan or lighter tog duvet would have helped. However room very clean, with a working Nespresso machine and tv. Very good working shower

Bit noisy below in the bar but that did disappear when pub closed and so unless you want to go to bed early you should be fine. Price was a bit high for drinks but all drinks were really good, this is more likely due to us being from the north and not the south.

This is an old building and so the rooms were very spacious but had small doors which made it look great. The beds were very comfy and the beer garden looked great. The price of drinks is a bit much compared to where we come from. All food that we had seen come out also looked great. I would definatly stay again.
