Jacqui United Kingdom

spotlessly clean, modern well run hotel and restaurant with great food and friendly staff. Had a great nights sleep in a large very comfortable bed with crisp fresh clean linen. very scenic looking out in to the water and seeing the barges parked up and people canoeing. The hotel is dog friendly which is great as there is many walking routes around as well as a really well thought out sensory garden across the road. plenty of parking. I will most definitely return.

Margaret United Kingdom

Was looking for a dog friendly hotel and this was a no fuss dig friendly place. Lovely view from the room and plenty of parking. Just what me needed.

Liz United Kingdom

Staff were very friendly especially the manager. Location was perfect for a stopover on the John Muir Way. Very dog friendly. Beds were comfortable and rooms cosy. Food was tasty and reasonably priced. Would recommend a stay here. Lovely sensory garden across the road which is interesting, views of marina from bedroom windows are great
