Great location, nice pub, great location welcoming and helpful staff, room quality was “ok” but decor was tired, chips, damage and dings, it looks like it could do at least with heavy duty decor maintenance or a revamp to be honest. Loud noises from the bins being emptied at 7am lost the “quiet” rating for us.

Brilliant! Best way to start the festive season
An unexpected fantastic stay after reading some other reviews. It was probably one of the busiest weekends being the last before Christmas and we had a warm and friendly welcome, excellent and very quick service. The food was fantastic, my steak was cooked perfectly and our room was so comfortable. Breakfast was also brilliant. This will be our first port of call when back in the area!

We felt very welcome at The Admiral Hornblower. Shauna checked us in and was so friendly and helpful. She was great behind the bar, too. And the next morning we were served by Alex, another lovely lady. The breakfast selection was varied and delicious. A fantastic stay – we will be back.

Great location
Great location and lovely accommodation. There were problems with getting a drink in the evening and service at breakfast both days was really slow. However the breakfast when it arrived was delicious! Hopefully these service issues can be sorted out

Must do better
Accommodation itself was basic but serviceable. Comfort was disappointing given there was no hot water or heating. And with this being an outside courtyard room it was particularly cold. Breakfast was ok but not special. Service mediocre.

Really enjoyed our stay, lovely friendly staff and the food was very nice. My only negative was that we were staying in rooms accessed by crossing the gravel car park. The gravel was slippery in the ice and needed a bit of sand and their was no outside lighting. Other than that, lovely and will definitely come again.
