The Sun Inn was all that we could have hoped for. Nice, comfortable rooms, friendly and accommodating staff and a wonderful breakfast (free). It had a cozy feel to it and we were sad to leave. It was definitely a five star for us.

Nice food but rooms need updating!
Nice restaurant but rooms could do with a revamp. I was there for business & had to leave at 0630 & breakfast didn’t start till 0800 with no other option!

The staff were amazing, great little Inn, it is a little out of the way, around 20 minutes from the city centre, however we were prepared for this as we had a hire car. Cute little rooms, has everything you need. We would certainly stay here again! Thanks team!

Good quaint lodge
Nice quaint lodge by the forest just in the outskirts of the city. Lovely garden and outdoor dining. Restaurant onsite but closes early so I missed dinner and had to order a “ Just Eat” delivery. Breakfast was great. Staff were friendly. Overall a good stay.

Not the best.
I booked this property for its convenient location, thinking it would allow me to leave for work later. However, things didn't go as planned. When I went down for breakfast, I was offered a coffee and received it a few minutes later, only to be informed that there was no one available to cook breakfast. The time spent having the coffee meant I couldn't go elsewhere before work.
Additionally, I accidentally paid for my evening meal and stay with my personal card. When I asked the lady to refund me so I could use my work card, she said she couldn't do it and the manager would call me the next day. Unfortunately, that call never came, leaving me without breakfast and unable to get a refund.

The Sun Inn very relaxing
Sun Inn was comfortable and had a homely feel . Accommodating staff were very friendly and welcoming. Our room had a great Mira shower in the bathroom.
A little bit of traffic noise from road outside meant keeping the windows tight shut at night but room did have fan.
Food in the dining area was good, especially the porridge breakfast. Would stay again if in the area
