We stayed one night and had a lovely stay. The rooms were immaculate and even though we were facing the courtyard outside we had a peaceful night. The staff were lovely and we would definitely stay here again.

Lovely Room
It was clean and tidy quiet, it felt like flat, not a hotel room. You went up some stairs to your room, there was only one other room.. You had a view of the court yard, or of a field both.. had everything you need in the room very spacious..

The whole property was well presented and welcoming. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good. The room was a good size, with all amenities expected. The window overlooked a busy road but with the triple glazing there was very little noise.

Perfect stay
Perfect stay. Staff were very helpful and kind. Room ( newly refurbished) was great and for a small fee we were able to make use of an extra lounge area adjacent to our room. Highly recommended.

Lovely hotel - need to improve their admin
Lovely refurbished hotel with great rooms and very friendly staff. Only downside of this trip I chose to pay at hotel but they took payment from my card before arrival which made the option pointless.

Top notch
A return to the land of my grandfather.. situated about a mile outside the town centre the hotel has a large carpark with electric chargers. The rooms are contained in a courtyard block set back from the reception in a style familiar to those that travel in Australia and that is a good thing. Facilities are excellent and each room is perfectly clean and spotless. The meals are cooked to perfection and the breakfasts are award winning The staff are courteous and attentive. All in all this is a top notch place to stay.

Room review.
very small room which was clean and tidy and modern. Quite noisy because of being next to refrigeration unit?and outside the bedroom window (room 2) was a service light which illuminated the roof and the bedroom, so the blind had to be down, but as it was very warm you had to make the choice blind up or down. The fan was great but noisy and emitted a harmonic which I thought might disturb others in the hotel, so i didnt use it. The toilet seat was loose and right up against a radiator and needs to be looked at asap. Very uncomfortable.

Modern and comfortable with lots of parking
Stayed in the courtyard rooms which are good, the chairs are not the greatest and not overly comfortable but ok. Other than better fitting black out blinds as they let in a lot of light especially when the sun shines on them the room was good, good size, clean, with USB charging points. Would stay again for sure.
