Wedding: December

Friendly, clean, comfortable hotel in Barnstable t

Very friendly, caring and helpful staff both at reception and in restaurant. Spacious bedroom, lovely comfortable bed. Great shower. Good Wi-Fi. Hairdryer and toiletries provided. Food and drink in restaurant (both evening meal and breakfast) excellently presented and of good quantity. Hotel located in centre of town but with secondary glazing there was little noise from outside. Car park behind hotel.

Could not do enough for me and my guests!

Could not do enough for me and my guests for our wedding. The red carpet on entry was an extra special touch. Howard behind the bar was very friendly and funny.

What a fantastic day it was!

We recently held our wedding reception at this venue, and what a fantastic day it was. Magda looked after us from start to finish, and we honestly could not fault the service. The staff members were incredibly attentive, nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was amazing. Definitely would recommend to anyone.
