"I was travelling alone for work and had the weekend in the middle to find someone else to stay to save travelling home. Found this hotel and booked. Arrived early evening. There was a lovely guy on reception who was really friendly and reserved me a table for dinner. The room was in the 3rd floor and was huge. Bed was huge and comfy and clean. Bathroom nice too. Breakfast and evening meal was great. Totally recommend this hotel made a really relaxing weekend. Hopefully will return again with my husband next time."
