A good friendly stay. The best compliment I can give is that we will be back again. What really stood out apart from the comfy rooms and fantastic breakfast was how helpful and willing the staff were to rectify any concerns or issues.

Fantastic place.....dont hesitate ! My mum and best friend stayed at The Avenue, nice size room, very clean, tidy and well presented. Fantastic breakfast the next morning. They couldnt do enough for them. Even made them both a cup of tea whilst they say outside in the lovely area out the back. Will and have recommened The Avenue to friends. They are also organising events in the evening that myself and friends would like to go to....i live locally. Looking forward to visiting !! And i would like to say a big thankyou for looking after my mum !!

Clean, comfortable and value for money This was a last minute booking due to a family emergency, we found the accommodation adequate for our needs and the price paid. Clean and fairly comfortable, the highlight was the excellent cooked breakfast.

Enjoyed it I had a lovely stay, the room was cosy and comfortable, and all staff I spoke to was very nice, down to earth, helpful and accomodating. Breakfast was really well cooked and tasty. The only feedback I have is that it was quite dusty on the floor between the bed and wall, and on the top of the headboard. The electric shower was as electric showers are; functional but not super efficient. I'll stress though that I did really enjoy my stay and would definitely stay again.

Disappointed wih wuality and price Arranged to pay on arrival which was more expensive to book since i booked a room for a colleague and we wanted to pay for own rooms, the hotel took payment prior to arrival and it has been a nightmare getting this straight. This is 6 rooms above a pub not a hotel, strict checkout at 11am and must leave premises at that time no reception or front desk. The room was dated, had no desk and the shower had several steps to enter which are dangerous when the floor is wet. We were charged £160 per room which i would say is £100 too much. The fact they take payment before you've seen the room indicates they know they are overcharging for what is on offer.
