Such a lovely hotel. I stayed here after a night out with friends. When i first entered, a nice lady took my bags upstairs for me and was ever so helpful with asking what time was convenient for me for breakfast. Beds very comfortable and room felt lovely and cosy. When it came to leaving, i had very bad signal on my phone so i couldn't order a taxi to where i left my car the night before. So the gentleman offered me a lift to my car! Lovely countryside hotel and i will gladly stay again.

Stayed here for my birthday weekend with my partner, landlady was very welcoming & friendly! It was home away from home for us, lovely cosy rooms, delicious food and extremely helpful staff! We ended up having alot of problems with our truck so ended up staying an extra night and the landlady was so kind and helpful going out of her way to help us and make sure we was ok. Will be recommending to everyone we know to stay here if they are in the area, lots of things to do and so many friendly people around! Thankyou for a lovely get away xx

This was a gem to find in an unfamiliar area where I needed a home from home stay whilst completing a British Cycling course 5 miles away. I was made very welcome by David (on the phone whilst booking) and Jen at the Hotel. Very clean and warm throughout with an amazingly comfortable bed for the night. Windows are openable (important as I like a cold bedroom and warm duvet)! The evening meal was delicious and at a reasonable price. Breakfast was inclusive and delicious with Fruit juices, cereals and variety of cooked food, toast and tea/coffee. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone. Thank you very much.

Stayed at this place two weeks ago, while visiting my dying mother in the Royal United Hospital. On arrival we found the hotel had no cell phone service and the room was so hot, we couldnt sleep. The cab driver the hotel booked for us only took cash, he had no meter or taxi licence. After one night of that experience, we checked out and still had to pay for all three nights. Owner has zero customer service, and barks at the staff. Faulty Towers 2018.
