Comfortable, quiet, value for money...

Liked: I had 2 lunches and the food was excellent and what I would expect from a high end restaurant, all the staff were very friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be staying again.
Disliked: My only criticism is staff smoking by the entrance door to the bedrooms(ground floor) it looked unprofessional. Maybe a designated area for staff to smoke out of sight would be more suitable.Bedroom furniture is getting tiered,but everything was clean.

Seems a little expensive for...

Liked: Location, plenty of parking, breakfast
Disliked: Room was a little tired, smelt damp. Loo seat needed adjusting.

Exceptional

Disliked: I have allergies and the menu is a little restricted but it was still good food.

Comfortable but disappointing service

Liked: Room was clean and comfortable
Disliked: Stayed on a bank holiday Monday. Very surprised to find that they stopped serving food after 4:45pm and the bar was closed by 7pm with no drinks or evening food an available to us. They directed us to another pub down the road!

A long way from home.

Liked: Staff were lovely. Location was good on the edge of a village with bus stop outside.Liked the relaxed atmosphere.
Disliked: Our room, which was on the roadside of the building, felt very dark. Needing lights on even on a bright sunny day. The walls were grey, the furniture dark and the blinds so dark they were almost black.

Good

Liked: Dinner excellent - though breakfast choice limited. Staff welcoming and helpful.
Disliked: Blinds - but no curtains so room was still quite light at night - due to car park lights. No electric car charge point - nearest is at the Quays.

Superb

Good and bad

Liked: Welcome and breakfast
Disliked: Room on main road would have preferred car park side the mattresse was tired and springs dug into my back

I would NEVER stay at...

Liked: Signing in
Disliked: The twin bedded we had was dark, dingy, carpet needed a deep clean and that goes for all 3 rooms I booked and the twin beds should have thrown out at least 10 years ago! My husband and I finally took the duvets out of their covers to put on the disgraceful mattresses in the hope that sleeping on the bed would be possible. We both did NOT get much sleep as the beds were so uncomfortable and frankly totally worn out, I would not even think of using such appalling beds in any of my spare rooms! My husband did comment to the young man about the beds but, of course he had a "sorry", but that was it!The breakfast was also very poor, extremely small and not fresh eggs, bacon like shoe leather, sausages not tasty at all and all swimming about in the very cheap baked beans. ALL IN ALL the night we stayed was very disappointing ! All 3 rooms had the same problems but , in fairness the double beds were not as bad as the singles we endured !
