Natalie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely venue & great staff.

We were travelling through so needed good food and a comfortable bed. Food was alright, but my steak was tough I didn't finish it. Lovely staff, food needs a few tweaks. No fresh fruit or yoghurt at breakfast.
HELEN, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Clean comfortable room, super king bed, good shower. No opening windows so patio door needs to be open with a restriction. Sunday roast was very good, a bit slow but 20 odd people showed up late & unexpected for a meal. Refurbished and modernised to a high standard.
