Would recommend

The stay was a lovely relief after a busy day. The room was large and comfortable, however the pillows were very soft. We ate at the hotel with the food being beautifully presented and delicious. Would recommend.

Newly refurbished in great style, the hotel was a delight in all respects. From a really friendly welcome to a lovely big bedroom (with a great view of the old castle ruins and beautiful Priory church) and an excellent evening meal we were really happy with our choice.

Nice overall

Lovely hotel, comfortable room. Biscuits left for us with tea and coffee but one of the two packs had been eaten and the wrapper left! Wedding going on the night we stayed and loud music went on until midnight.

Nice hotel but haunted for sure

The hotel is very nice and the room was lovely. My only complaint was a noisy fridge in the room and bizzarre as.you may think, there was a ghostly pressence in my room which freaked me out slighy. If you like parranormal experiences, try room 202
