Booked a three night stay. It’s advertised as having boutique bedrooms. Watermarks and cracks on the ceiling , ring marks on bedside table, dirty marks on net curtains. Went and told staff we would not be staying they offered another room almost as if they weren’t surprised!! We declined the offer. Was told by staff member to get In touch with Expedia and she would arrange a refund! Put in a complaint and still no response

25th Anniversary Party Stay
Lovely hotel and staff, the room was nice too. We stayed as an an anniversary party in the venue attached. Breakfast was lovely. Only criticism would be that the rooms were quite warm.

Comfortable but attention needed
Room was comfortable, bathroom was well appointed, always nice to see an extra effort made there. Improvements could be made with regards to the bed, carpets, furniture etc as beginning to look a bit worn. Breakfast was very good.

Presented and hosted great, bed horrendous!!!
Check in was great, host waiting to check me in. Room was clean and presented lovely. The only reason for the bad review is the bed, it was horrendous, it was so soft, it felt broken and I felt like I was being bent in half, ended up sleeping on the floor just to get a couple hours of sleep.

Great for what we paid
For the price we paid it was good accomodation. The room would be better if it was painted a lighter colour as it seems to dark. Loved the restsurant downstairs.

Nice stay
Super location for the lovely area of Ashley cross. Our room was small but super bathroom (note no door so that may put some people off). We had two singles put together one mattress was perfect and quite firm the other my husband described as a bean bag. It was a warm day when we stayed and there is no air con and unfortunately the fan provided didnt alleviate the temperature. Fabulous staff - clean room and we would stay again albeit wouldn't chose room number 2.

Pretty awful experience
not good at all, booked for 2 nights but left after 1. The main issues were noise and parking, there is virtually no parking and the local car parks are 4 hours maximum so I had to park a considerable distance away. The room was nice but there is no double glazing and it is on a very busy road with lots of bikers and this goes on throughout the night. Nobody available in the morning and no breakfast option that I could see so all in all a bit of a disaster, needless to say I won't be returning

Very nice pub hotel
Very nice and well appointed little hotel. Didn’t have breakfast as the timing didn’t work for me but it’s 7:30-9:30 weekdays and 8:00-10:00 at weekends. Comfy beds, good shower. Friendly reception.

Lovely little find
The hotel has a lovely vibe about it. We booked a table and the foid was amazing, generous portion sizes and full of flavour. The room was clean and warm, slightly small but plenty big enough for us. The car park is very small so could be a problem at times. Staff very helpful and we would definitely stay again.
