Nothing to like anything about this property. To describe as hotel in not correct as it cannot be described even as bed and breakfast. Very dated and bedding which was old and scratchy. Leak in the sink in the bathroom. No extra duvet and heating not working properly. We were supposed to get garden view room. The view from our room was dump yard infested with mouse. Photo available. Definitely not worth for the price charged. I would say anything above £45 is not worth paying. Breakfast was to be charged extra but was told it is out sourced. We left as soon as we ready and went to nice cafe a minute away for breakfast.

Quite the opposite of what their website says there was no dining and the bar was in the process of being built. I am sure it'll be beautiful soon once the refurb is complete
