tasty breakfast multiple options price increase hikers tea
the breakfast had multiple options and was tasty. the location is in the center of the high street. parking was located out back with a parking pass available for purchase from the hotel it was cheaper than using the machine.
a friend bought a hikers tea voucher as a christmas gift that was valid for a year. i went to the hotel three months later and the voucher did not cover the cost as the price had increased several pounds since purchase. i had to pay extra to cover the difference in price.

excellent location car parking dog friendly heating problem no air conditioning dog struggle
The location is excellent. It is right on the high street. I also appreciated the car parking. The hotel is very dog friendly. The breakfast was amazing. The food was quality. It was cooked well.
I experienced a problem with the heating upon arrival. It was a cold day. The heating in the room was not turned on until 6 pm. I made three phone calls to Reception. The room also had no air conditioning. Our dog struggled with the heat inside the room.
