Station Hotel

We went to visit friends and decided to book this hotel, as it was local. I went to check in on my own, as my husband tried to find a parking space, as there are none, he had to park on the pavement on a busy road. The entrance is through a pub, which I felf a bit uncomfortable with, as I have never seen so many dogs in a bar. After reading the information about the pub, it seems they encourage people to take their dogs there. I had to wait to be seen, as there were three men at the bar ordering drinks. But the worst was yet to come. I could not believe it when they came to show me the room. It was up two flights of stairs and the carpets were absolutely filthy. So much so, that your feet stuck to them as you walked upstairs. On first sight the room was not too bad, dated, but seemed clean enough, although I noticed he had difficulty opening the door, as it was so stiff. He gave me the key and the keyring was a cardboard beer mat. When my husband saw the place he asked a member of staff if we could get our money back, but he told us that we would need to contact the booking company. However, I had paid with my debit card at the bar directly to the hotel. So, we tried to make the best of it. The wardrope door was hanging off it's hinges. There was one socket in the room and the bathroom light and extractor were filthy. The radiator in the bathroom leaked and when we got up in the morning the bathroom floor and carpet at the door was soaked. They don't serve food and mainly have rooms with shared toilet facilities. The room we had was en suite, but wasn't cheap at 79 gbp for the night. We complained about the room to a member of staff and asked if we left would they refund our money. But he said we got up in the morning, the bathroom floor and carpet outside the door was soaked. We have stayed in many hotels. luxury and basic, but this was the worst hotel we have ever stayed in. Avoid at all cost. We'd have been more comfortable sleeping in the car.

Hotel definitely needs refurbishment. Communal areas look like a squat! Staff were lovely and did all that they could.

Nice place

Absolutely beautiful old station hotel . Crammed full of character. The owners and staff are amazing

A wonderful selection of ales. The menu was a bit basic, but very tasty. The room was comfortable, although could do with redecorating due to a water leak in the roof. Helen the bar maid was very friendly and helpful. On the whole, a pleasant trip.

Good selection of beers and the food is very good def recommend very nice staff

Went here for a meal with friends. To say we were disappointed is an understatement. The food took ages to come out. It wasn't because they were busy. As far as we could see we were the only ones eating but after 40 mins we had to chase them up. Surprise it appeared almost immediately but was cold so it had been sitting for ages. They took it back to reheat. Had to be microwave as it came back hot but my scampi was like bullets and went cold again quickly. Given a one star rating because after complaining they addressed the issue in our favour but I am never going back there again for food

The station hotel bar areas where really nice up to date, clean and nice decor, outside area, near for when the weather is good, also do food, staff are really welcoming, polite and genuine, rooms are are large, tv w/c, could do with an update in decor id say, maybe en-suits in all rooms. But good rooms to stay over whilst working away and such. Found the kingsize bed very comfy, i would definitely stay again, good prices to.

It's a typical pub menu but with a twist! The food is really good and full of flavour. Plenty to choose from, including gluten-free and vegetarian options, plus a children's menu. A good range of real ales to choose from plus plenty of other alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Well worth a visit.
