Riverside hotel with excellent rooms and exceptional cleanliness. Reception was a bit functional rather than warm and dining expensive compared to many surrounding options.

A nice old fashioned hotel in the centre of Barnstable. Short walk to Parkrun, and close to shops. Decided £20 each for breakfast was too much for us, so went into town.

Property was very good except for a lot of squeaky floor boards which is too be expected in an old building. Food was excellent,plenty of choice of the menu. Staff were very friendly and helpful nothing was too much trouble for them. I would highly recommend this hotel you won’t be disappointed. Highlight for me was the excellent food compliments too the chef.
