We only stayed one night. Ground floor room. There's a lot to like about this place. Room was very well furnished, spacious and comfortable and felt quite luxurious. Good beds. Even the very small things - like complimentary Yorkshire teabags instead of cheaper alternatives. So first impressions were excellent and overall it did the job for us as a single night overnight stop on a longer journey . We have knocked a few stars off for 2 reasons. First, our shower didn't work. Cold mostly - only way to get it lukewarm was to drop the pressure to a trickle. Mentioned this when leaving and management were surprised as apparently it had just been fixed. But there are negative comments about the showers in several reviews so it looks like this does need fixing, properly. Secondly, we've stayed in many old buildings with creaking floorboards...but here at the Leagate Inn the creaking floorboard noise from above/the first floor was off the charts. The people above weren't stomping about either, they didn't have kids running around, but the noise as they moved about their room was extraordinary. We were laughing about it, though I doubt we'd have seen the funny side if staying more than one night. For that reason, I'd caution anyone against accepting a ground floor room (also, the beer garden was right outside which didn't bother us at all but might bother some).
