Great Comfort & Restaurant
Nice facility and excellent co staff however, there are a lot of steps so not great for the elderly and we struggled to get hot water to have a shower. Ran for 30 mins but could only get hot water if ran the cold tap in the sink and popped in and out of the shower to control water that way … not ideal.

We have stayed here before so were expecting the same good service. Unfortunately we stayed in room 20 and it was no where near as good as the last room. It did haven't enough plug sockets and there wasn't one anywhere near the mirror to do your hair. There were marks on the wall which was obviously where it was going mouldy. There was no mat to wipe your feet on which therefore left dirty marks on the carpet which I was not happy to do. Having said that the hotel is in a good position and the restaurant is lovely as are the staff.

A nice place to stay for a night or two.
The positives: the staff are friendly, efficient, and helpful, but not obtrusive. The room was nice, with no problems with the facilities. There are USB A and C sockets at the plug points. Everything just worked, so we had no need to ask for explanation. It has a pleasant village setting (NOTE - Hotels.com suggested this was IN Gainsborough - it isn't.) You can walk around the village, which has shops/cashpoint in the Co-Op shop/takeaways and pubs, and a really nice old parish church just a few steps away (it happened to be open for the weekend whilst we were there). Within easy drive of other places, but I don't think you could practically stay here if you are reliant on public transport. The room we stayed in is in the main building - this has obviously recently been refurbished (the room was good, but in the corridor: carpet and some fittings still need to be replaced/it smelled slightly of paint), but they'll probably be finished very shortly by the looks of it. Some of the guest rooms are in adjacent buildings, but only a few steps away across the car park. One minor niggle: the internet service seemed to be a bit underpowered for current hotel size and expectations - struggled on a zoom call with wifi (fortunately, this was personal, not business), and the TV buffered a bit with internet services. Whether this is so in all rooms, I cannot say. Personally, I prefer an ethernet access where I can get one, but I understand this may entail extra wiring. Would return

Immaculate accommodation
The accommodation was amazing. We had completed a visit prior to our booked dates to see what the pub & accommodation was like. We weren’t disappointed. The accommodation was very clean and tidy. The staff on reception were very helpful and cheerful. We didn’t actually get chance to sample the restaurant (as we were in the locality to attend a wedding).
