"Good quality hotel in great location."

8.0

Room was warm, comfortable and well equipped. Good choice of Breakfast - I enjoyed the smoked salmon and scrambled egg although it was subject to a £6 supplement.

The food that we enjoyed at dinner was good however we though that it was expensive for what it was.

"Unbeatable location, excellent staff, good restaurant and comfortable accommodation."

9.0

Menu and food quality at dinner very good and well served by pleasant as well as thoroughly professional staff. Breakfast equally good menu offer and quality of food and service. Certainly better than recent stays at comparable hotels and price range. Nothing

Fellow diners who insist in coming into a good restaurant dressed in garden jeans and tea shirts. The staff deserve better.
