Negative Reviews

negative:

No fan in the room

During hotter times of the year, some guests have complained about the rooms in this hotel being too hot. Air conditioning, or even a fan, would be appreciated in these circumstances.

negative:

No vegetarian options

Despite the menu overall getting good reviews, a number of guests have commented on the absence of vegetarian options to choose from. This seems a bit odd in this day and age, but nevertheless if you are a vegetarian then dining here probably is not an option for you.

negative:

Some rooms not in the actual pub

Though not a massive negative, some of the accommodation is not actually a part of the pub itself but is instead made up of separate ‘bungalows' near the main building. This has left some guests feeling like they are not fully experiencing the pub's atmosphere.
