First stay at the Black Swan
A one night stay but will be back.
Room was spacious and the bed was huge. Bathroom was clean and the toilet was fitted with soft close lids. I just hate lid slams at daft O clock in the morning.
The reception staff were polite friendly and helpful.
We ate an evening meal in the hotel, fortunately we ate early, as there was a lot of diners that night and the staff were struggling. The food was cooked to order we enjoyed the pie and the steamed pudding. Excellent chips. My boss had the pineapple and coconut sweet which was different and tasty.
Would happily recommend the hotel.

Staff are amazing people. However, the bathroom was disgusting with human pubic hair on the floor and bathtub. No toiletry supplies and had to get some at the front desk. Attempted to send photos, but email was bounced back.

ALL GOOD HOTEL
Location food and staff were all superb. They were also willing to accept cash for room payment ! Car parking at rear off hotel was available on all five days of our stay and never had to park else where. Can't praise this hotel and staff enough.

Overall a poor stay unfortunately
Room was clean, carpets very old and tired. Main areas weren’t so clean, tables sticky, dog wee on floor, carpet in main hallway.
We had to cancel our food order on an evening meal as we had waited over an hour.
We also had to put in a noise complaint about the room next to ours, very loud talking / shouting and tv on loud at midnight.
Overall not a great stay at all.
While hotel needs a re vamp.
