“A lovely location, a great bar and food but strange accommodation.”

Reviewed 13 April 2013

We loved the beer, food, the barman was excellent, but this is about the hotel itself. I cant recommend it in all honesty. You can hear everything, the floors, walls and ceillings are paper thin and creaky, not ideal for a restful sleep. There was no water pressure at all for the shower, nothing. The heating was on full blast... More

“The Worst Customer Service I Have Ever Experienced, Bar None.”

Reviewed 9 April 2013

When we pulled up to the Tuns, I thought we were going to have a really nice stay, as the hotel and the location looked beautiful. However, it didn't take long for things to turn sour. When we walked into the bar to check in, we were met by Steve, the owner, who seemed pleasant at first. He asked if... More

It not our intention for guests to feel less than happy as you can read from the majority of our reviews our guests are very happy. The breakfast staff were made aware of two issues by the guests and done what they could to look into them and were unable to resolve them instantly. (we were not previously aware of... More

“Lacking in every way. Don't stay at the Tuns.”

Reviewed 20 November 2012

Annoyingly, only read the small print of 28 days cancellation terms after booking. They must assume we are all able to see into the future. Had we known how we would be treated would never have stayed at Tuns. Be warned! We booked for two nights but we were running 60mins late to get there on a Friday night (we... More

We do plan our business into the future and cancelations can be a serious blow unless you have a policy to deal with them. We currently operate our rooms through bookings.com and as such have to submit quite strict criteria with regards to our room policies; they are listed under important information with all customer booking confirmations. Our latest check... More
