Overall our stay was good. Only disappointment was the bar when we came back one evening wanting a drink. We were advised that they could not take payment for drinks after 11pm and that we were to speak to reception and give our credit card details and that they would charge a £50 holding fee, which would be adjusted when we checked out. For 2 drinks, this was absolutely pointless!! We were also given a discount card to use at the bar, but were not advised that this could not be used after 11pm?? All in all - no one seemed to know what or why these rules were in place?! It would have been helpful to have been given all this information when we first checked in!!

The room was okay felt very dated, tap was leaky heating didn’t work, they gave me a very old oil radiator which did little to help. Otherwise the stay was okay but definitely could do better.
