The property was under renos. It felt like our window was open it was so cold. Our radiator was leaking but when they fixed that the heat was not working for 2 days. Finally a portable heater at end of 2nd day. It was freezing cold.. We were very dissatisfied. We were refunded 18 pounds for our breakfast.

Overall a very good experience helpful and polite staff and excellent food service in a great environment there are however some areas which should be considered. This hotel has no lift, has many levels and is not wheelchair friendly the rooms are good but areas that concerned us were a poor fit toilet seat and a non working extract fan, we did have a radiator leak but that was attended to, external road noise was a barrier to sleep!
