Both my partner and I arrived at the hotel at 1800 hrs on this day, and found that the room we had booked was incorrect. When queried at the reception, we were told that it as listed was a Twin Room, even though we had specifically asked for a Double. We were then told that there were no other rooms... More

We booked this hotel with David Urquart travel as a New year break, and I think one of their employees should sample what the hotel is really like! We were supposed to have a welcome drink however the hotel management decided to withdraw this offer, this was only the beginning,the following day they weren't going to provide lunch until the...

I stayed during half-term with my two children in a triple room. The room/bathroom was very clean and tidy and could not really fault it given the very reasonable price I paid for DB&B. The food provided was very good particularly the breakfast, offering full english, toast, yoghurts, fruit, etc. I have read other comments and can advise that students... More

Where do I start? Well with the negatives as they are the most significant part of my review! The room wasn't cleaned on a daily basis it was only until the third day they changed the sheets! When you shower you would be lucky to get more than a few minutes of lukewarm water which was followed by unbearable cold.... More
