When booking was not asked for a deposit which we thought was strange as most hotels ask for at least your card details. We looked at the hotel on the website and thought that it looked great, on arrival we were a little disappointed. We were shown to our room which was clean, but very dated, as my husband put it , 'It's like staying in your Grandma's bedroom' There were toby jugs and chintz all around. Breakfast was a joke, and due to fits of laughter 'on my behalf' we were unable to complain. The fruit was dry and had seen better days, toast was limited to 1 1/2 slices per guest, and then when breakfast came things were missing. the beans came straight from the microwave in a bowl and the black pudding after we had asked, which was stone cold and my husband sausage had only been cooked on one side, and was raw on the other. We were not told until later that they had no hash browns and were replaced by fried bread. During breakfast the 'lady ' of the hotel came out from cooking breakfast, wearing a mucky T-shirt and nothing on her legs. I think if we had seen her first we wouldn't have even bothered to order breakfast. The reception area you were met with a cat and a dog not a nice site. I understand that hoteliers are entitled to have pets but guest should not have to share them. On leaving we paid the bill CASH OR CHEQUE only, we were not asked if we had, had a good time or if everything had been ok. I am sorry to say that I would not recommend this hotel to anyone. The only thing that it had going for it were, the large car park and the location. This is a shame as it could be a lovely place. The internet is a good thing, but on this occasion I thing that the photos must have been either from 'the best room' in the hotel, or from somewhere, and that the reviews were wrote by the hoteliers themselves. Unless of course they were having a 'BAD DAY'
