The Sun Inn

Booked 2 nights in a refurbished double room 20, Monday to Wednesday, at £98 per night. The room was on the top floor and very small. The carpet was stained and the hanging rail and bed were broken. We were moved to room 12 on the second floor another supposedly refurbished room. It was much larger but still not as clean as I would expect. There is no suitcase stand or shelf in the bathroom to put your wash bags and one small hook for the towels. All the corridors to the bedrooms have a faint smell of urine. The stair bannister rail is so sticky I did not touch it a second time. Needless to say after an 8 hour drive we stayed for one night and came home writing off the cost of the second night. The only saving grace to this b&b is the young staff who tried to help out.

For what we paid for the room it was very spacious, clean and tidy and conveniently located for the purpose of our stay. Yes it was noisy around but when you are stay in a town centre it is no different to any other town centre,it is as expected. That said, the bed was comfortable enough and with a pair of earplugs it was comfortable enough for our two day stayover. The staff were polite and helpful and the breakfast was plentiful and tasty. The caffetiere with the coffee was like a full bag of coffee had been poured into it and was like rocket fuel,but we are coffee lovers and it was deliscious non the less. No amenities were provided, however, given the price I wouldnt expect this. Conveniently there is a tesco express right next door and boots a few doors down so easy to buy and travel essentials you have forgotten to pack. Room was nice and cool and had a TV with freeview and tea, coffee and hot chocolate available in the room which was a nice touch. The room could have done with a minor lick of paint along one wall, but as I said previously, for an inexpensive hotel compared to other places 3/4 times the price in the area, this was a great option. Accesibility may be hard for disabled/less able bodied people as lots of stairs but sure the hotel would provide a lower level floor if requested. Overall feel nice and quite homely. Would stay here again.

Went for evening meal and pre-ordeted food. The food was served very quickly after our booked time but was very poor quality. The melted cheese on the hunters chicken was hard and burnt, obviously kept jnders grill gor for too long. The chips were overcooked and shrivelled looking and tasted of stale oil. The Burger buns were very cold and soggy, probably just come out of a freezer. The burgers were also cold. The waffles with chicken were burnt and inedible, and had to be replaced with different meals meaning those two people had a long wait and couldn't eat with the rest of the party. We were also charged for the replacement meal which were higher. The room was cold and there were delays with cutlery. The waiter was friendly. The menu was very limited and very expensive.

Property under construction so in 2-3 months the property will most likely be improved. Staff was great, location was perfect, and pub and garden is delightful. Great value and quaint town.

Stayed for one night with my partner on a winter getaway deal they had and was extremely great value, believe they have new owners and it looks like they are doing a great job. So please ignore older reviews as they don't relate to our experience. Room was warm and cosy , the new menu is delicious and well thought out , the best service we have ever had on our travels, from check in to when we left we lwere ooked after by a stqff member called Toby/Tony who couldn't do enough for us and is a credit to the establishment. There was music but we slept soundly and enjoyed the breakfast too . Thank you to all at The Sun . Thank you

We enjoyed a delicious meal of pork belly and whisky maple ribs, from the new menu, with excellent and attentive service. Nice and quiet too, compared to the other restaurants which were fully booked. Thank you.
