Stayed here before, and it seems to have had a refurb at some point. Excellent decor in all areas including our room and bathroom. The team worked REALLY hard ( I would say they are understaffed in the restaurant).

Great stay

I have been staying with friends at this hotel for over 15 years and the new look has made a vast improvement. The food and staff were fantastic. However the card only payment scheme and no vehicle electric charging station may put me off in future.

Enjoyable stay

Our second visit, and more planned. Beautifully decorated, and clean rooms. Had a lovely meal in the pub. Some of the rooms are upstairs and down fairly long corridors, so my only advice would be to book directly, to ensure a ground floor room if needed.
