We stayed at the Pennyfarthing for one night, needing something within walking distance of the train station. I would rate it highly for a comfortable stay. Our room was very attactive (pretty, contemporary furnishings, moden bath) and had all the amenities I expect for such a stay -really comfortable bed, nice linens, two slightly different pillows (one firmer, one softer-...

I did an overnighter here while attending a function. The service was excellent and very friendly. Room very nice, clean and quiet, with all the bits and bobs you need (tea, coffee good tv etc).

The receptionist, a friendly a helpful woman, showed us to our room which was on a strange corridor on the street, off the courtyard. The smell of damp on entering the room couldn't be masked by the plug in air freshener. The patch on the ceiling may... More

Marie & Betty were very nice & sweet. Great Breakfast....Lovely place. I recommended. Love Maggie&

I ate at the restaurant next door which offers a 20% discount when the hotel book a table for you, the food was really nice! The staff were very pleasant, I had a slight problem with the shower in the morning and they... More
