You could hear dogs barking in the night & cars on the road, not sound proof at all, we could hear the people next door having a normal conversation word for word. The staff were lovely but the hotel itself not so much.

Second time staying here. Good value for money, aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Beds and pillows comfortable, nice and warm in the rooms and hotel itself Rooms could do with a freshen up with paint and small maintenance to windows and walls. Remote control filthy, batteries flat. Tea and coffee facility which is good. Shower pressure average but overall good value, fairly clean, good breakfast variety Would definitely come back
