stayed on a saturday night B&B and had dinner in the restaurant. We had a room in the annex which was of average standard and clean. We thoght the staff were all very friendly and service in the restaurant was of a high standard, as was the food. We would recommend this place and will be staying again More

We recently stayed here for my fiance's birthday. On arrival we were quickly checked in and directed to our room. As we had booked the dinner bed and breakfast deal we were advised that the table in the restaurant was held all evening for us which was great as we had had a busy day and wanted to have a... More

There is a complete lack of attention to basic detail. The hotel and dining room are hanging in dirt and cobwebs. In my room 3 out of 4 towels were dirty and had obviously been used by a previous guest. The bathroom had a patched up ceiling and dusty vanity area. The fan was excessively loud and thick with a...

I have been visiting the Cook & Barker for many years and have always had good service and quality food.

Make sure you get there early for the 2 for £10 early bird offer before 7pm. Liked it so much we went back again the next day and had... More

We stayed in the annex building and from the minute we arrived we werent made to feel very welcome and staff seemed too busy dealing with a wedding than us. The room was very drab,hair on bottle of shampoo and soap wasnt wrapped up and looked used. Loose fittings in the bathroom. Generally grubby. We stay in hotels all the... More

Stayed for 1 night with the wife, the rooms were at the rear of the hotel and were quiet with no road noise apart from a few squeaking floorboards. The welcome and the meals were excellent and the food quantity would satisfy anyone with an appetite. Both my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our dinner meal and apparently so did... More
