Traditional old hotel, nicely furnished - not old fashioned, just traditional style for an old house. Didn't have dinner, breakfast was excellent, cold buffet and hot traditional breakfast with good coffee. We had a big double room, spotless clean, very comfortable. Friendly helpful staff. Enjoyed our stay.

What a horrible hotel. Very dated. Room was horrible and big damp patches on the ceiling. Worst sleep I’ve ever had, mattress was really cheap and lumpy. Woke up many times during the night as it was so cold( they obviously turn the heating off)Was that bad I didn’t stay for breakfast, just wanted out of there as quick as possible.Please do not waste your money on this dump, really strong smell of dampness when you walk in. In DESPERATE need of a good clean and refurb.Will never stay here again and would most definitely not recommend.Would have been better staying with the Adam’s family.

Not even a roof over my head, as bad as it gets. No WiFi upstairs, joke in 2024. TV tiny. Never again will I stay here. Cold and wet and that's before you head outside. Food was alright. Staff I couldn't fault either. Absolute goldmine potentially if had a refurb.

Firstly I have to be fair to the two staff members who were nice, this has nothing to do with them, I'm sure they do their best.|The photos are lies from the off, the place is dirty, weird smelling, very off putting! …

We ended up at this hotel after being sent from their sister hotel, the Mansfield castle hotel.|The gentleman on reception was certainly more professional looking and had some customer service. …
