our stay was good our only regret was we couldn't have breakfast at the hotel as I had an activity day booked at the Three Sisters race track at 8.15 in the morning yous get exellent reviews on your food. (107230322)

negative comments It says on your website that all rooms have an uninterupted country view (No they don't) most of them have my girlfrinds room (Room No 6) had a direct view of the building accross from her. Cleanliness. The top off the wardrobe was dusty in my room.

We would definitely recommend this hotel as the staff were excellent, breakfast was huge for a fiver and very nice, and being a Free House there was a great selection of beverages from foreign lagers and beers to real ales. Nice location away from residential area and near to lakes making for a lovely walk the next day. (97255785)

positive comments The staff were very friendly, helpful and accommodating. Being a Free House, there was an excellent choice of interesting beer
negative comments Nothing to dislike

We were welcomed really nicely and we loved the evening meal. Breakfast seemed to have spent too long in the microwave. We were not asked whether we had enjoyed our stay. On the whole we did, and thought it was good value for money. (99899461)

negative comments Paint peeling off bathroom ceiling. Shower cubicle shabby. Lighting inadequate.

I very nice bar & restaurant! The food is excellent and the range of beer/ ales is excellent too! Together with friendly helpful staff it is a pleasant change to chain hotel accomodation!

The hotel is well located in beautiful countryside with a large carpark. It is very clean and welcoming. The restaturant has very good food, all freshly cooked and delicious. The bar is well stocked and has real ales. The staff are friendly and helpful. The bedroom we had was very clean and pleasant, with a welcome tray. It is an ideal hotel from which to tour the area.

Good value for money if evening comforts were not the priority. Pre information should have stated that there was no bath only shower. The room was warm and appeared clean. The vast menu, with additional festive foods, offered great choice but such a range of alternatives does not mean fresh homemade meals. I choose grills!! (99235024)

positive comments Good beer and food. Bed was firm and comfortable.
negative comments Room fairly basic having, for example only one upright chair and a shower that needed renewing. No toilet cleaning facilities.
