Uncomfortable bed, no bath, and noise from 07:50 on a Sunday. The room looked nice but I was disappointed to not have a bath despite the room booking saying Bath / Shower combo. The bed was so uncomfortable I woke up with back pain, we both kept rolling to the middle of the bed all night. There was a very noisy extraction fan from the kitchen turned on at 07:50 which vibrated through our entire room. Appreciate its rooms surrounding a pub, but there’s clearly a fault with the fan. Bathroom had a frosted door and the toilet was right behind it…. Not sure why this can’t be a normal door. Very rare we get a night away as parents, so pretty upset. Didn’t bother staying for breakfast so can’t comment on that. Staff were nice, but won’t be staying again.

I had ‘the snug’ but it’s not that small and served its purpose perfectly. With a lovely hot shower too!!
