They locked us out of the hotel

We had a hotel booking for Christmas Day which had been booked and paid for 2 months in advance. Despite many automated texts from the hotel, they failed to mention we had to check in by 6pm before the pub closed. They rang at 5:30 to ask where we were. Luckily we were due to arrive at 5:50pm but this was only by chance. We collected our key and were given key codes for the front door and corridor. Cut to 12am after finishing the festivities nearby, we headed to the hotel, and the front door we were using the key code for had been locked from the inside and we could not access the hotel. We had been locked out. We tried turning the lock both ways, putting the code in in all sorts of different ways, banging on the door and windows of the onsite house, and calling the ‘emergency’ phone number on the door, which, low and behold, had been turned off. Absolutely atrocious service. We ended up sleeping in our car on Christmas night. When we finally got in contact with the hotel today to raise the issues we were met with defensive staff who refused to take any responsibility. We were given a refund for the rate of the room, but the inconvenience caused in Christmas Day cannot be made up for. It ruined our plans for Boxing Day too with our family. Avoid avoid avoid.

A comfortable and cost effective option. However what really made my stay was the friendly and helpful staff especially Paula and Jackie.

Birthday stay

The place was very quirky with its beems and lay out. Food was lovely, staff very friendly and helpful. The rooms a good size and the beds comfy. Nice location by the river. Only reason it's not 5 out of 5 is because it needs a lick of paint In some areas. Picky I know. But a lovely place to stay. Thank you

We used to take our children here years ago on riverside trips and were really pleased by our four night stay. Nice clean room with very big bed, relaxing pub, good food and a quiet location with plenty of free parking space. Staff are nice and helpful. We'll be back.
