Our stay was outstanding. We booked a dog friendly room and upon arrival we had a large dog bed, biscuits and water already set up in the room which was thoughtful and welcoming. The room was spotless and the beds were super comfortable. The views from the room were lovely. It was a 10/10 stay and we would definitely return. Also nothing was too much trouble, I spoke to Ella before we arrived and she resolved all of my queries straight away and was so friendly.

Excellent dog friendly hotel

The hotel was lovely, well furnished with a nice “vibe”,and the staff were all amazing. The location of the hotel next to a busy road and the railway wasn’t ideal but there was nothing the hotel itself could do about that. It was, however, close to everything you needed, within walking distance. They also welcomed our dogs and even supplied dog beds, bowls and treats.

Home away from home

I can’t think of anything negative aside from the lift that is very slow but it didn’t matter, I love taking the stairs. Service was great, place is immaculate, our server, Will, was very engaging and easy to get to pubs and restaurants as well. Also, if you’re not driving, you can just walk from the train station. The walk is ten minutes but it will feel that you’re just walking in a park. Absolutely lovely! I highly recommend this place and will definitely stay there again.
