We only had a brief one night stay on our way to Devon but enjoyed every minute of it - we ate in the restaurant and both loved our meals , both the venison and the mushroom pie were excellent , the only downside was that was so comfortable and quiet in our room that we slept in and didn’t have time for breakfast. Next time for sure

Good service
Check in was fast. The room allocated to me was easily accessible and very spacious. The plumbing system needs to be repaired. I found something floating in the wc when I first got into the room. Thought the housekeeping did not do a thorough job, but after I flushed the toilet, the floating objects kept reappearing. It was rather disgusting. The hotel has a pub and food was good, service was great too.

6/10 Good

This is a fine building which, in my opinion, shows lots of untapped potential. Overall the property was fine BUT: Furniture was sort of "chic" but some older pieces like our dressing table and the table we used in the dining room could be better in keeping if sanded down and painted. We were only offered various cooked breakfasts from the menu, whereas an included light cereals and toast- which is what we wanted - was not on a menu or originally offered. Evening meal was a bit pricey, we thought. Fish and chips was £16.95 and the cheapest and the desert was £7.95 . We thought a brief and lighter "Travellers Menu" whould have been an appropriate addition. Our room was quite big and pretty well equipped yet the dressing mirror with a small dressing table was parked in a dark corner and at a height where the lady only saw half of her face to put on make-up - this is a common issue we think.
