Good position, if you can get a decent parking place.
Stayed in room 103...Best outlook.
The food is under whelming.
The cook (can’t call him/her a chef) can only boil vegetables until they are a soggy mess.
The cook has to mask all the foods with thick sauces and gravy.
One meal specifically stuck out, was the lamb in some sort of red wine sauce.
Our group consisted of ….. 2 X 62 year olds, plus one aged 89 and one aged 92, all four of us left it.
None of us found it palatable.
I asked for no sauce nor gravy for one meal, and my meat came out, rock hard and tasteless.
My wife gave up on the meat, and only ate fish at the end.
Cheap vegetables soaking in water is the name of the game, especially courgettes.
The very old ones’ love it….No need for teeth.
The great thing is the staff.
FANTASTIC!!! and nothing too much trouble.
If the owners’ can get a reasonable chef, it could be THE place to stay.
Another problem is…The toilet roll is so thin, you must take your own, or else your finger will disappear to a dark and not very nice place. (You know where I mean).
The beer in the bar is not a true beer, it is a John Smiths pumped through with nitrogen, and how ANYONE can call “Fosters” a lager, is self deluding with no taste.
You can only get Wi Fi in 2 public rooms…They should invest in a internet cable to each room, if they want to attract business people.
The TV when we went, was only 4 terrestrial channels.
A positive…
I slept on a foam mattress, as I do at home, and had some good nights sleep too.
Would I recommend it?
An honest answer is NO, until the food is differently prepared and presented.
