8.2/10 Very Good! (1,001 reviews)
Room very clean, staff nice and friendly hotel itself also clean and fresh. Swimming pool and spa dated and not as clean (due to age rather lack of effort). Food and drink slightly over priced £17+ for a pint of lager and glass of wine.

Large parking area out the back, we missed it first round but located it easily enough - slightly slow check-in but room was gorgeous! I loved reading about the history of the hotel and local town.

Had to contact the owner as the hot tub was not ready for our stay and had to be filled and warmed up. We then only had two nights in the hot tub instead of three we had paid for the hot tub via the booking agent but the owner was not aware of this !!!
