Good stay

Dana B. Solo - 23/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

lovely hotel & room. Peaceful & clean. However had to pay £20+ to park in a small car park down a side road & got called twice in the morning to check out when I was under the impression I added a late check out. When I asked about this I got told it wouldn’t go through it down through booking.com. This meant I had to pay £20 again to check out later as I had no choice but to wait for my boyfriend who is currently in the marines.

Charged me for a stay I did not take, having cancelled well in advance

Anonymous Solo - 23/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Due to the coronavirus, I cancelled my trip rather than possible be infected and in turn infect hotel staff and visitors. Despite doing this well in advance, there was no refund offered.

Great stay

Anonymous Couples - 22/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

The staff were fantastic, very helpful in difficult circumstances. My wife and I booked two nights as our son would be away on a school trip. School trip cancelled at very short notice so my wife and I could only manage one night away. Booking.com were all but useless in communication and Lettings us know if we could cancel or rearrange the stay for another time without losing all our money. The staff at the hotel were great and did there best to make sure we had a great stay. We found out on departure that the hotel were telling guests who had booked and paid that they could rearrange a stay in the future at no cost but booking.com had not passed this info on. Rest assured from now on I will be booking direct with you guys Thanks again to the staff. Best regards Jeremy C.

Disappointed

Willem Solo - 22/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Had to cancel my trip due to the government imposed travel restrictions. Asked the hotel for a refund, as this was not a personal reason, but an imposed one. They told me "sorry, can't refund anything". Disappointing....
