I stayed here for one night in May 11, to attend a nearby wedding. I was a woman travelling alone. I have to say I found the whole experience a bit creepy, I arrived in the afternoon and my car was the only one in the carpark, I struggled to find anyone to check in, and when I did I... More

must admit we were worried when we arrived, the outside is very worn and it really needs some serious money spent on the place but we we welcomed by very friendly staff. The people could not do enough for us, our room was large, with a comfortable bed and lovely views - despite what some say isn't a view -... More

Our first impression was that the hotel was a bit scruffy but there was no smell. We were amused by the reception desk which was an unmanned table but were warmly greeted, booked in and taken to our room. The room was quite small but probably no smaller than any standard room in most hotels. The furniture was modern with... More

I agree with comments regarding the need for a complete refurb. Avoid the rooms overlooking the main entrance as there can be noise from late arrivals/returners/leavers. Also the lighting in the car park can cause glare to enter the room despite the curtains being drawn. The rooms overlooking the petrol station are to be avoided as well despite the very... More

On arrival we went to the untidy desk in the hall which served as reception. It was unmanned but a staff member soon appeared. We were checked in very swiftly, although little information was offered to assist us, and taken to our room. On initial appearance the room was fine, although on closer inspection there were cobwebs, the curtain was... More

Nothing like its website. Stayed for two nights to attend a wedding nearby. Received an uninterested welcome from the young man who booked us in. He did not tell us how to get into the hotel late at night, which we had to invetsigate and work out ourselves. The room was tired and dated with floorboards in need of serious... More
