Fantastic Stay!

central location helpful staff

The location was central! The staff were very friendly and helpful . The food portions were excellent, so I felt satisfied after every meal. I really enjoyed the Sunday roast. The chef deserves huge kudos.

The shower head in my room wasn't fitted properly. the rail in the shower had metal fixture covers sliding off.

Adequate Stay at Village Hotel

central location friendly staff first class breakfast temperature change faulty toilet worst shower

I found the location quite central. The staff seemed very friendly. The breakfast was first class. Just what I would do if I had friends staying in my home.

There were some small annoyances. The shower water temperature would change suddenly while in the shower. The toilet did not flush properly. It was probably the worst shower I ever had.
