Was in the bottle Kiln today with my partner for a light lunch when I ordered a small fish and chips with drink then got back to table and worked out the price they had over charged me for a large apparently that was my fault staff were saying it was my fault and would not change it or give me the difference back asked to talk to some one higher up but said all I can do is make a complaint on line sorry but not everyone go's onkine. P.s I won't be going back to be over charged wonder how many people they do this to people every week hope the top boss sees this as I like the guy as he supports Reform.

We stayed in the hotel for one night. It was more than adequate. Clean, spacious, nice decor, and most importantly it was very quiet. Really good value. Staff are friendly and helpful. Would stay again.
