Visiting Family so near and...

Liked: It was clean and tidy and easy to get to and there’s a large garage next door if you fancy goodies,food,drinks etc but a little expensive,food was ok but a limited menu as is the breakfast nevertheless it was ok for us
Disliked: It’s out of the way of everything if that’s a problem to some travellers and parking fees,we was there and it cost us £32 I’m sure like other guests they too would think it should be in the price of the stay oh and us personally didn’t like the sausages in the morning

Ok for a night

Liked: The hotel was clean and comfortable, staff were approachable and mostly friendly.
Disliked: The hotel is located so you would need to drive to get there and they charge £8 per day to park. The WiFi is unusable and due to the location phone reception is awful. Poor amount of seating for breakfast.
