Overall initial impression was good, Ordered for evening meal and waited an hour for the food although the restaurant wasn't busy. Breakfast both mornings seemed to have one waitress rushing everywhere, people waiting for buffet to be refilled, sausages, bacon , hash browns orange juice etc all brought by this single waitress. Our room wasn't serviced after tbe first night, so wehad get coffee, milk from reception. We paid as much for our stay here as other hotels, where the service in the rooms and restaurant was spot on. I hope this is a one off.

Ok stay at the Dragonfly

Lovely hotel, just the room had no main light so it was a bit dark, also the shower was nice apart for the temperature control, it was either cold or hot just couldn’t get a happy medium. Breakfast the next morning was really good.

Average

Pros Friendly staff Clean room Good free car park inc EV charging Cons Room quite small, window small so not much light Restaurant menu very basic, usual burgers, pizza , fish n chips etc Didn’t look appealing so I ate elsewhere Breakfast was very basic, not much choice , no pastries and only one 2 slice toaster for the whole restaurant! This caused a back log and long wait. On check out, no ‘how was your room ? Questions, just thanks and goodbye which I get a lot in the hotels I stay in Not sure I would stay again, was just average

The bed was comfortable. Bathroom very clean. Carpet had a couple of sticky spots. Breakfast was excellent. The grass verges were littered with plastic bottles and old food wrappings. It was a bit windy and could possibly have come from full bins.
