What a very pleasant experience! I have to say that everything was great, from the very friendly and efficient staff, the scrumptious food, a decent pint of Guinness, and possibly the most comfortable hotel bed I have stayed in to date! You can see that the premises have had a lot of refurbishment work done recently; the room we stayed in was beautifully decorated. Patrick and Margaret were really pleasant to deal with and checked in a couple of times to ensure everything was good without being intrusive. We ate here for three different meals during our visit, and each was as good as the other. The pork belly at the carvery was succulent, the chicken burger on the dinner menu was excellent, and the breakfast was perfect. Overall, great value in a lovely premises that is very centrally located, making it an ideal base for exploring the local area, which has lots to offer. Well done to all the staff. We will be back again - highly recommended!
