What guests say
The room we had was ideal for our stay to do family history and catch up with relatives locally. The room is bigger than some hotel rooms we have had. It felt roomy, light and was easy to spend time in. The bathroom was larger than expected and also felt nice to be in there, even though there is no external window to the bathroom. The access to the room was easy. We both felt safe and secure in the room and slept well both nights. The cooked breakfasts were awesome. Whilst we didn't eat lunch or dinner at the Oliver Twist, I'd expect the lunch and dinner menu's to be as fabulous as the breakfast food. It certainly looked, and smelt really good. Definitely happy to recommend, and will be happy to stay there again.

This was our first visit to this pub. We only stayed for a meal. If feels like a locals pub, which welcomes everyone. It looked like a great place to eat. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The food was appreciated by all of us. Generous portions and good quality food. My wife had a rump steak and said it was the best steak she had eaten for a while. Well done to the pub. We enjoyed it there and hope to return soon.

I stayed at this hotel recently and paid £130 but I was very disappointed with the condition of the room and the way my concerns were handled. I went into the shower and only realised after I was already wet that there was no shampoo provided in the dispenser/tray. This was a basic amenity that should have been checked before the room was given to guests. The room itself was also not properly maintained. There were spider webs around the walls and corners, and the walls had multiple visible cracks, making the room feel neglected and unclean. What made the experience worse was the response from reception. I raised these issues politely, but there was no apology or concern shown at all. I was simply told they could give me a bottle of shampoo to take back to the room. The lack of customer care and professionalism was extremely disappointing. For the price paid, I expected much better standards of cleanliness, maintenance, and customer service. Unfortunately, this stay did not meet even basic expectations I wouldn’t stay there again.

Perfect for what I needed. An overnight night stay to attend a nearby birthday party. Quiet, although well located to main A roads. Room was clean and comfortable, staff were welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was incredible. I had the salmon and scrambled egg on toasted sourdough.
