I usually just book a travelodge but when they were either all booked or coming in at £70+ per night I looked for a B&B close to where I was working. at £69 per night inc wifi and breakfast this seemed a good alternative. I arrived late but there were detailed instructions left on how to access my room. I... More

Very good value hotel if you are on a budget. The staff are always friendly and although the rooms are a little on the basic side they are clean and adequate. I have stayed here twice and will be returning. Free off road parking is very good and free Wifi is excellent. Only slight niggle is the timings of Breakfast,... More

Really friendly welcome and helpful service. When I asked for directions they printed off a map for me. Rooms really clean and great supplies of tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits. Spare pillows and blankets in wardrobe. Nice area with lots of safe, free parking. Wonderful choice of breakfast, the only downside was no vegetarian option other than no bacon... More

In Summary - Unfriendly welcome - Very small room - Early evening noise from all sides - Invasion of Privacy - Adequate but small breakfast Not a nice welcome I have to say! I had agreed by phone to pay cash on arrival, and although it's great that they provide this service, from the way he was acting, I didn't... More

The room was small but adequate, very clean and nicely warm. I had opted for shared facilities. There were 2 toilets and 2 additional bathrooms also containing toilets so sharing wasn't a problem. Despite the hotel being completely full they never seemed to be occupied when I needed them. The owners were extremely helpful, finding an adapter for my telephone... More

The managers are really kind and helpful: they always give me all the information I needed and ask me if my stay was good. The room is very small, but it is very clean. The breakfast is good. Moreover, you are allowed to use the breakfast room during the day for having your own lunch or dinner. The location is... More

I stayed 4 nights on business. The overall stay was what I would call Budget with a capital B, which wasn't that bad as I had a budget price.. I had a standard single without an en-suite (which was unintentional, but I believe a misunderstanding in the booking on my part). However I was faced with a very small room... More

We as the current management team only succeeded the previous management mid February 2012 and, therefore, feel it is inappropriate for us to comment on this review, other than this person stayed in January 2012 and it is only now, April 2012, that this person felt inclined to post this review, why?

I stayed at this B&B in mid March 2011. The staff are pleasant and helpful. However, the main problem with the hotel is the rooms are terribly small and it is hard to not to get the sense that it has been designed with the intention of creating as many rooms as possible without considering the comfort of its clients....
