We have never had any reason to complain about the food at The Dolphin, the mains come with a choice of potatoes and either a salad or mixed vegetables. The staff are very courteous and nothing is too much trouble. We haven't stayed at The Dolphin so can't comment on the rooms

We have not stayed at the hotel but have visited the Dolphin Hotel Restaurant many times during the past few years. The restaurant staff are friendly, hard working and attentive. If you ask for any special requests they do their upmost to meet them. We love their roasts (especially their yorkshire puds!). If you want a wholesome meal in friendly... More

A lovely place to stay, safe parking for our motorbike, very friendly staff, clean quite room, nice lively bar which was very well run, great breakfast, great place to stay, only downside was that the photos of rooms on website really don't do it justice, they are much better than photos show.

We stayed for two nights at this hotel and had a lovely time. The staff friendly and helpful, The hotel is nice and 'oldy worldly' and the bedroom large, clean and comfortable. There is a bar which served food that was delicious. We are returning in April with the family X 9 and a dog for a two night stay.

Stayed here recently, but I do not think the Dolphin deserves such a high rating on trip advisor. There are a number of good points. The shower had plenty of room, was easy to use and had constant hot water. Our room itself was spacious enough, and staff were perfectly polite and helpful. The car parking at the rear was... More
