"This is an old coaching inn with a lot of history and the location can’t be faulted. I did feel that the exterior and interior of the building need investment and could do with a refurb. The staff make every effort and work very hard. They are all helpful. The bar was cosy and we liked the bar dining room for dinner. My only suggestion is to not use the deep fat fryer for Yorkshire puddings. Finally we had read great reviews about breakfast but were very disappointed; to coffee was much too weak and the English breakfast was very low grade with eggs fried in a lot of oil and a poor quality sausage."

"Hotel reception very helpful. They had initially allocated us a room which required us to use stairs. My wife explained she had problems with her knee so they kindly reallocated us to a room accessible by a lift. The room was comfortable but there was a strange odour at entrance to the bathroom which we reported to reception. The hotel was very busy. We couldn’t get a table in the Dining Room before 8.45 which was rather late for us. The bar manager helpfully found us a table about 7pm which was ideal. Parking very limited and was full by the time we arrived early afternoon so we had to use multi storey about ten minutes walk away. Would certainly use again."

"The hotel reception, outside area, bar and restaurant were all great. The room was clean, the bathroom had been updated and was fine. The windows needed drastic attention, we could not move them due to the state of repair, I assume there is some sort on 'listed building status' but they really need attention. The location and everything else was great."
