I booked this as friends live 8 mins away. Even from booking friendly staff, check in informative and friendly lovely Hotel very comfy beds. Car park was free. I came to check in on my own left my Husband with friend, left my car in car park her son came to pick me up asked reception taxi recomendation told me Delta wrote number down for me no problem what time we came back night porter on duty. Phoned the taxi when ready 5 mins he was outside, took us to Hotel just over £5. When he got there he had a pick up from our Hotel. Win win. Slept like a baby had a shower was inside the bath ok for me, to High for my Husband to high. Went down for b/fast cheary greeting from every one, informative pointing where things are, vast choice on menu for hot food, both chose full b/fast minus black pud 1 had beans 1 without absolutely lovely full to bursting came around to say buffet would be closing did we want anything. I didn't Husband had toast with honey on, I made it on one of those grills you put your bread in and comes out warm bread this didn't spot on. When leaving b/fast room wanted to thank them not about asked reception to pass it on. Check out was 11am went a little walk to see the lovely view we had from window a bit breezy came back sat in reception as a friend would lives in kirby was meeting us for a drink before we came home. We checked this was ok and it was fine no problem. While waiting they kept asking if we needed anything just ask. She arrived as long as she put reg in she could have 6 hours no charge parking. We could be there until the time I checked in the day before. We didn't had drink and catch up then went our separate ways. I also found out about the Lodge they have in front of disabled Bay I parked in no stairs and you still have b/fast in main hotel. Got quite busy while we were there, people eating and drinking long may it continue. It's a little gem and keep hold of your lovely staff. Nice homely atmosphere without feeling pompus. My 2 separate friends have eaten here in the past 1 lunchtime with work colleagues and 1 with her Dad for Sunday lunch as he lovedgoing there when he was alive 99 when he died and felt he was going somewhere up market. He was so right it's the people and the place that makes it special. Thank you we will be back next year for sure
