"Basic hotel very well located. The ground floor rooms are very dated. Have stayed before and upper level rooms are far superior. Will return but won’t take a lower floor room."

Stonecross Manor Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was clean, but in need of some TLC. The lights did work, when the receptionist was told she came fiddled with the light bulbs, eventually they came back on. Once turned off they would not come back on. Very much felt that was an issue the hotel knew about, but had not fixed. The staff at breakfast were not welcoming. When the breakfast came the bacon and black pudding were not fully cooked. The sausage was poor quality and very peppery. Rather disappointing. Will not be staying again."
