New Inn Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"3 of us had 3 separate rooms during our 2 night stay, the reception staff were very welcoming, rooms were immaculately clean and very well maintained as was the full hotel top to bottom, beds super comfy, bathrooms sparkling & spotlessly clean & overall room size was large with adequate storage for clothes etc. In the morning guests are welcomed in to a really pleasant dining room by a lovely bright & bubbly lady member of the hotel staff. After being shown to your table, guests can place their orders from a wide selection of quality cold or hot food & drinks. Evening meals were really nice & correct portion sizes for ourselves. The hotel is excellent, well maintained, all staff super friendly, food was excellent & priced to suit most budgets. We can highly recommend a stay at New Inn Hotel & we’ll be returning guests when in the area again. Excellent!!!!"
