Nice enough but nothing special

Room was clean and small but adequate. Reception very polite and helpfull. Breakfast poor only 3rd days breakfast much better. Bar seemed nice enough but busy had a meal in the breakfast room. Housekeeping could be improved

10/10 Exceptional

Great escape with incredible views.

Have just had a wonderful 2 night stay. The outside is magnificent, but at night it has such a magical feel to it. We had dinner both nights in the bar area and it was idyllic and had a cosy feel to it. The fireplace was one of my favourite things, I have a great love of old decor and I adored the mix of old and new decor. The portions were incredible generous and would definitely recommend the burgers!. It’s been beautiful renovated throughout and I loved the country cottage style decor feel of our room. I think it’s a wonderful touch that all the rooms are named after paddle steamers and boats. The staff were all so friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The views are incredible too, both during the day and the twinkling lights at night.

Lovely hotel

Friendly staff and lovely clean fresh room. We didn’t eat there but the food looked good. Only issue was check in and out. Had to ring the reception bell multiple times then go to bar and ask for help. If you fix this issue it will be a perfect place to stay. Would definitely go back
Clare, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very friendly staff from all parts of the team (restaurant, bar and hotel). Extremely clean and comfortable with a view to being eco-friendly. The restaurant for breakfast, lunch & dinner was high quality & value with a variety of choices. Had a small problem with logging onto the Wi-Fi at one point and seemed to be a little slow, but not really a big deal.

good beer, bad place to stay

It was very bad. more like an old seaside B&B

Very poor service from staff ie buffet dishes lying on tables all afternoon also glasses not collected before disco was set up had to ask at bar to be cleared before evening guests arrived
Gordon, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good stay, bad shower pressure.

The stay as a whole was very pleasant. The room, clean, the decor, very nice. My only 'gripe', is that the water pressure for the shower was terrible. I felt I had to run around in the shower to get wet. It was little more than a dribble and I felt I had to stand with my nose against the wall to get under the water. I took ages to have a wash!
Andrew, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A comfortable 3 day business stay

Recently refurbished room made the stay far more comfortable than my last stay. It is however a shame that the drafty windows were not also included in the significant renovations. The staff were brilliant and the food offer is great but please someone taste the hollandaise and rethink it. Fortunately I was lucky to try it before pouring on to nicely cooked salmon. Overall, a very pleasant stay and I will stay again although I think the new rooms will make the place very popular.

Black mould hotel of horrors

Awful mouldy and run down with a rude lady with long fair hair who welcomed us with the words “name” ! Our room was so dirty and run down with black mould on the bathroom ceiling it made us feel sick!
Sarah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We got a brand new room and it was lovely it was booked as a triple but wasn’t a lot of space should have been a double as when the sofa bed was pulled out there was no room at all and a table we had in room was blocking room door when bed was out , the room was lovely and fresh and spotless only downfall to the room was the window let in a draft so room was very cold in the morning trying to get ready , checking in the staff were absolutely lovely

4/10 Fair

Location was stunning. Didnt like the run down look and smell of the place, needs decorating and updating, would benefit from new carpets, curtains and shower cubicles, fire doors upstairs were constantly banging as people used them, not good for someone needing to sleep. The price paid reflects what it is and I would pay more if all matters were attended to.

Disappointing- refurbishment needed

Disappointing stay. Hotel in need of major overhaul as very dated. Plumbing in particular is poor with old electric shower and hot water to sink that took 2 minutes to get hot! Cooking smells from kitchen permeated room. Staff not very friendly.
John, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Okay hotel

We stayed at the hotel for 4 nights in 2 rooms as a family. We had to ask for coffee and milk refills every day as these were not brought to our room by housekeeping. Also had to ask for toilet paper on one occasion. Was surprised breakfast wasn’t included for the price. Saturday night was very noisy due to a function downstairs. That said, staff were friendly and helpful when we asked for anything. Might have been a more pleasant stay had we been able to use the outside area but wet weather kept us indoors and didn’t find the pub or restaurant especially hospitable. I would recommend for a stop over but not for a long stay.
Jocelyn, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was neat and tidy, but that's about as much praise as I can offer. I can only describe it as a poor man's Premier Inn - it's a basic place to sleep, dinner was average, breakfast was very poor. Staff were OK, friendly enough, but they were hampered by the system they were working within - it's hard to be enthusiastic when you know that you're only offering "average". The major downside was the two flights of steep spiral stairs to get to the room - not fun when carrying heavy bags. To be perfectly honest, we would have been better off finding a Premier Inn on our route. At least it makes no bones about what it is, and what it offers.

Book a double bed & get a single!

I arrived, checked in, given my entry card to my room but when I got there, someone had not moved out! Therefore, a double room that I'd booked was not available! Back down to reception & I was offered a single room. That's OK but I said I was not going to pay the same as for the double. I was offered a single room which I accepted but for a 50% discount. Still awaiting the bill.
Alexander, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The property is tired at best. Bench seats had foam poking out where the fabric was worn. The bedroom window wouldn't stay open, so very hot and airless. Unpleasant and very loud music playing right outside the room. Shower dreadful: just a trickle at best and the thermostat didn't work, so it was 'guess the temperature' on the dial - cold/hot didn't seem to matter. Breakfast was just appalling. No non-dairy alternatives available, so had to buy my own non-dairy milk. The breakfast service was equally dreadful, e.g. no breakfast bowls or plates, so had to ask but staff hard to find. Orange juice ran out and not topped up. They couldn't even offer boiling water for tea - just a flask of hot water. All in all, this has to be the most overpriced and disappointing 'hotel' I have ever stayed in. Will definitely NOT recommend and will NEVER go there again.
