Spotlessly clean hotel run by a lovely couple. the car park is large enough to enable you to come and go as you please, with no fear of losing your place. The breakfast is very good indeed.. I would and indeed intend to stay there in the future. More

I stayed in this hotel with my family for a weekend. The hotel website pictures were misleading, I found the hotel more of a 3* and expected more for the nightly charge. The greeting by the manager was short and lacked in general friendliness. The room itself was tidy and basic but the bathroom was tiny and had a terrible... More

4 Star no way. Hospitality to take your money and thats about all,kept waiting on the doorstep and then a quick run through on the hotel before asking for payment. The bar is open until midnight ran out of beer and then to top it up left bar unattended for 45mins while he was over the road at his other... More

The Princess has some way to go to reach its goal, but I believe that the owners will achieve the standards deserving of 4 stars. I have mixed views and feelings about our 2 night stay and the upshot is, I would not stay in the same bedroom again. The bedroom was of a good standard but unfortunately the walls... More

We booked this hotel as a last minute get away. You couldn't ask for nicer people in Diane and Wally, they made us really welcome at both of their hotels. Room was really spacious and homely and very clean. The hotel as alot of potential and owners have great plans for the place, cannot wait to visit again because if... More

Hotel looked lovely on website but did not live up to promise. Not sure how it got 4 stars, I have stayed in much better 3 star accommodation. It was very basic, not much atmosphere. Room was OK, bit small but was clean. Signs of damp in bathroom. No complimentary biscuits or toiletries as advertised. Breakfast ok, nothing special. White... More
