Check where you are staying,...
Liked: The bed was comfortable but small for a double. Evening meal in the attached pub was good value and cooked nicely. Receptionist in the Pub was very helpful. Dogs were allowed in the pub and Lodge. The pub had a very good selection of beers, not just larger as in most places nowadays.
Disliked: The booking.com page didn't state that you have to pay car parking and breakfast was only a very basic continental in the lodge, you have to pay and £10 for a cooked breakfast in the hotel. All the spar facilities are in the hotel not the lodge. There was only 2 coat hangers in my room which didn't bother me, but if two or more people stayed it could be an issue. The bedroom floor was stained and the hall outside the rooms was worst, these stains weren't from dogs, more like bleach or wine. The bathroom tap needed some maintenance as it was very stiff, also the drain in the shower couldn't handle the amount of water the very good power shower shot out. I had to turn the flow down to stop it flooding the bathroom.

Great place for a short/medium...
Liked: Check-in was very simple. The staff were very approachable, helpful and clear with information requested. I loved the extra information provided on the TV screen in my room. The room was very clean and spacious. The clever use of space under the bed to put cases in was also impressive. Nice big shower, and good sized bathroom. Integrated mirror in desk which was great for drying my hair (so many hotels do not have power points by mirrors so you end up drying/styling your hair without a mirror).
Disliked: Personal preference, the bed was a little too firm for me, but you cant please everyone.

Perfectly fine facilities for the...
Liked: Loud plumbing noise in my room anytime other residents used the toilet or shower meant I had two very disturbed nights sleep. The breakfast offered was a really limited option compared to times I’ve stayed previously. I didn’t notice this from the booking.com listing.
