I attended a training weekend and we were placed in a pretty little outhouse, but unfortunately this was not at all suitable. The WIFI connection was extremely poor, which meant long waits and drop outs in the middle of working through the exercises. This became really frustrating. We were told that a signal booster would be available for the next day but we chose to leave and go elsewhere to complete the course. The room was dark with coloured lighting that kept going out (they were overheating), and there weren't enough electrical sockets where we were sitting. The radiators were on low and, because the building was so old and tall the heat dissipated to the celling, I suspect, which left us feeling chilly and was not conducive for learning.

Very disappointing stay: Heating not working, damp showing in bedroom, severe damp above shower, unable to unlock room to get in and had to get help from the bar. Lady told us to use brute force which she did to open it. In the morning, unable to use the sink as water wouldn’t drain away, tried to go down for breakfast but the door would not unlock. Rang hotel number 5 times over next 40 minutes with no reply. About to ring police to get help, but instead decided to use a Swiss army penknife to remove the lock myself, so that we could actually get out of the room. After a disappointing breakfast, I reported our difficulties to the girl who gave us breakfast and asked her to report it to the management. Was hoping we would get an apology from them but have heard nothing. Very overpriced accommodation for the state of the room. Would not recommend to anyone and will not stay there again.

Very very disappointing
Really poor value for money, tired and foul smelling room, no breakfast on the first morning and no hot water on the second.
Awful value for money and would not recommend or stay again.

Nice stay
Nice accommodation, staff were pleasant, room was clean and comfortable, lovely shower, very warm room. We checked out at 9.30 but couldn’t find anyone to check out with then noticed a small sign to leave the keys on the table. Only downside was breakfast was 7am -8.30am which was fair to early for us but thrte are other places in town to eat. Over all great stay and free parking was a bonus.

The best in town!
Fabulous hotel with great staff. Part of a golfing group who normally stay at the White Hart but this hotel trumps the other so if you are going to spend your money, go here instead. Great facilities albeit they don’t have many rooms. They also have off road parking unlike the other hotel mentioned

Okehamptons worse hotel.
The room was not worth the money.
Breakfast was between 8-9:30 and the chef never turned up. The landlord/landlady was upstairs in bed and never sorted the situation out.
I will never stay there again and will be writing a scathing review on trust pilot.
