Bennetts Bar, Restaurant And

The owner was outstanding and went above and beyond for us, and the food was absolutely delicious. Service: 5 stars. Hotel highlights: Excellent value.

The chili chicken, advertised as “crispy chicken,” was merely bland chunks of chicken smothered in a mildly spicy sauce. The naan bread was dry and lacking in flavor, with some cheese that looked like it had barely melted on top. Additionally, the rice portions were hardly filled, barely covering half of the container. The curries were underwhelming—bland, small portions, and the chicken appeared unseasoned. The makhani curry tasted more like Heinz tomato soup than anything flavorful, completely missing the mark. Overall, the meal felt very amateurish. It’s a shame, as the staff were friendly and welcoming, and based on other reviews, the food might be better when enjoyed in the restaurant itself. I can't help but wonder if we just caught them on a bad day, or if perhaps the usual chef was unavailable. I genuinely want to support local small businesses, so I may give them another chance in a few months.

I made a reservation through their website, which was cheaper than using a third-party site, but there's a reason for that low price. The room felt unclean, and we ultimately decided not to stay and drove home instead. The rooms appear to have last been updated in the 1970s. Rating: Rooms: 1, Location: 3.

Only stayed one night. The rooms are somewhere to rest your head. I found the two male reception staff very rude and unwelcoming, however the female we met was lovely and very engaging. If nothing else available I would stag again. On the plus they are dog friendly. Rooms: Dated but with loads of space. Walkability: Very close to the local pubs, restaurants and dog walking area.

From the moment I entered the location, I could see that things were not quite right. The staff was very kind, but unfortunately in terms of cleanliness, things are not going well. The carpet on the stairs leading to the rooms is terribly dirty and in the rooms you can see cobwebs. A simple walk to the bathroom can be conclusive on the cleanliness , on socks gathered hairs from more than 5 people who were probably accommodated before me. Unfortunately, I chose this location based on the rating on Google, but I will definitely never return. Rooms: 1 Service: 2 Location: 3
