The location of the pub was great.

The room was dated and in poor condition particularly the bathroom. Went for a meal in the pub and the noise and bad language from the other customers was shocking.When our meal arrived fish and chips were like child portion. On going back to our room which backed onto the beer garden the same customers were outside using bad language. Was put off and left the hotel.

The staff were really friendly, the evening meal and breakfast were both good, the Hotel / rooms are tired and not the best but then you get what you pay for, it suited us for a one night stop over, really nice staff
