Hottest day in May on record and the heating was on in my room. After speaking with staff three times and an hour and a half later, I was moved to another room. In spite of the wonderful advert featuring a restaurant I was told no kitchen tonight. Second room was very noisy overlooking the car park which doubles as a camping ground for motor homes, with ten present. No mattress cover and a very dirty mattress. Black mould on the bathroom ceiling which had been painted over but still showed through. Definitely would not recommend this hotel.

Bathroom was clean, it would of been nice if there was pillow protectors on, coffee and tea was supplied. The floor near the bathroom door felt like it needs to be replaced as there was a hole under the carpet.

Don’t do it

Only redeeming quality was the staff. Window frames rotten, noisy until 4am from someone’s TV or stream, shower dirty and cramped to get into, carpets stained.
Was meant to be there for 3 nights but couldn’t face the last night and went to a proper hotel.
Staff friendly though

I particularly liked that the stafff and customers of the Bridgehouse welcomed me. The place had the social feeling of what I think a good pub should be. The room was spacious, comfortable and quiet too.

I just needed a bed for the night, to break a long drive. The hotel was very basic, which I should perhaps have anticipated for the price.
It was not particularly clean. Handrails on the stair were grimy, the main door needed repairing. I didn't feel confident of the cleanliness of the bathroom or the bed. The sheets and towels were thin.
But I slept OK.
It felt like an operation run on a shoestring and I was glad to leave the next morning and I found a delicious breakfast somewhere else.
Would not dream of recommending to anyone in its present state

Couldn't even stay, front house person was in dirty stained clothes rooms old, grotty and bathroom not cleaned unhygenic. We left and found alternative accommodation
Not like Expedia had advertised and how other people has rated this accommodation as good is beyond me. Dirty accommodation is not good

The host was very friendly on arrival and hospitable. Our room however was very dated and cleanliness could be improved. Cups and kettle were dirty, the shower room/ toilet was very small and floor in bathroom was dusty. The bed was very uncomfy too. We won’t be staying there again

Great location, easy to get to, great big parking, nice little village with a Chinese takeout across the street, a Coop close by. Sadly the cleanliness of the room was poor. Grime in the bathroom where floor meets walls. Very dirty remote control, some kind of sauce spilled on the side of the chest of drawers. Bed linen clean and bed comfortable. The radiator nob not functioning as it should. Should have stayed two nights but left after the first. Sorry, but proper cleaning of the room is so important.

In ganzen ist es für ein Paar Tage für Übernachtung OK. In unseren Zimmer gab es keine Garderobe, oder Schrank. Es ist auch sehr eng für ein Schrank, aber in der Wand kann man sehen 2 Löcher mit Dübeln für die Schrauben- da war mal warscheinlich etwas an der Wand befestigt-vermutlich Kleiderhaken, oder Garderobe. Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend.
Trotz keine Englischkenntnisse könnten wir uns mit dem Personal verständigen. Was uns etwas gestört hat- das der Fußboden an manchen Stellen quitschte ( beim Gang zur Toilette, und den Spülkasten von der Toiletten Spülung von Nachbarn Zimmer, ebenso wie unseren Zimmer könnte man sehr deutig hören.
