The property was large! Our bedroom had a double bed and two singles, a desk, ensuite, and plenty of lighting, three lamps with adjustable reading lights. There was a kettle on the bedroom with coffee and tea. House keeping came every day to clean, take rubbish, make the beds and restock toiletries when needed. The only issue for us was the microwave wasn't great and there were people talking all night one night, either in a room next to us or outside the room and kept my partner up as he's a light sleeper. Apart from that we had an amazing stay, spending 4 nights here. We had a ground floor room and the bad reviews seem to be basement as we were worried after reading the reviews but that was the opposite of our experience. We loved the way the place was decorated, yes it's not perfect and pristine but it wasn't dirty (few very minor rips in wallpaper but that doesn't affect anything!), the people running the place were absolutely lovely and helpful, by the front door was lots of leaflets for things to do incase you don't have set plans. We would definitely stay here again if we visit, it's so close to town but out the way so nights, apart from one, was quiet as anything but that was guests not the fault of the business really. We had a 3year old with us who loved it, space to play in the bedroom, a TV which we only used once as so busy! And a lovely little garden. Even a bus route right outside the house to town as by day three we were exhausted. Lovely experience!

So cold! When we inquired we were told that heat only comes on at 8 pm until 6:30am. Never been in such a cold hotel. The next day they did turn the heat on at 7 pm and the next at 5:30. Need supervision at night as guests come in early hours of the night and are very noisy. Beautiful house that could have some TLC. Spend some money- it’s not a cheap property to stay at. No place to hang towels. Need new pillows. So many small things would go a long way. The room, linens and bathroom were very clean- much appreciated. But I could never recommend this property!

Rooms were very small, stairs very steep and narrow. Staff helpful but extra charge for early check-in (40 mins) is that really necessary? We’ve stayed in better but this was far from the worst. They said to us at booking there was parking, there is no parking.

Rooms are the size of a closet, shower is very difficult to get hot water, housekeeping replaced towels and made the bed but did not change the sheets our entire stay. We know because there was a stain on the fitted sheet that was there the whole time. There is no free parking as stated. The fire alarms went off multiple times and the manager could not figure out how to shut it off for 15 minutes. Tried to charge £15 to check in 30 minutes early. I would never recommend anyone staying here. False advertising at its finest.

The room we stay was half basement. It was big but dark, outdated and little bit creepy. We saw two big mosquitoes on the ceiling. Anyway, we only stayed for one night.

Good price for a good sized, fairly clean room. The only qualm is that the shower cubicle could do with being re-grouted and re-sealed.

I have booked this place to stay 3 of us , and booked 1 room with 3 beds with a front door wiew and large window due to my husbands sickness , we have been giving lower basement floor , which has no signals , no internet, no window to open, incase of fire we have to run upstairs if we find the way , plus all the beds are bended so old , the furnitures are so old , after complaining what i have booked , the guy gave us the lower ground floor bedroom with front door wiew, which was ok to be in, but still the beds were all old and making noise if u want to turn your left or right , so noisy beds and old furnishings since 1980s , for the price not worth more the £50 per night , tv doesn't work , some of the side lamps doesnt work, was there just for decoration kinda..

The proprierter was helpful in suggesting where we park our car. The property was just a little tired but perfectly adequate for our one night stay. We walked to a top class restaurant although some may find the distance long.
