"The hotel is fairly new, the staff on the whole were friendly and helpful. The hotel is quite a way from town and there's nothing nearby apart from an Aldi. Most Premier Inn hotels I've stopped at in the past have a a proper restaurant attached like a brewers fair. However, this hotel had an odd little restaurant, no proper bar area, and it was open plan, opening into the reception and front door area. The food on the whole was really substandard. We arrived last Monday, 25/7 and was looking forward to eating after having looked at the range of food. I asked for a steak to be told they didn't have any..... Not a good start, so opted for the katsu curry. This was in fact the best meal of the week!! We didn't eat there on Tuesday. Wednesday my daughter had chicken wings in a bbq sauce which was Stone cold in the middle and had to be returned. She then had a cheeseburger which was absolutely dripping in grease. The plate was covered in it. Very unappetising so that was returned. I asked for houmous for my starter to be told they didn't have any, so ended up with chicken gourjons. I managed to get my steak finally, a sirloin as they still didn't have any ribeye. It was cooked OK, I asked for blue cheese sauce, my favourite, it came in a lovely small pour jug. It was Stone cold, tasted horrid, I asked why it was cold as never had cold gloopy blue cheese sauce, to be told that's how it comes. So that didn't get eaten. Finally our last meal was Thurs night, I asked for King prawn linguine. It came out with 3 prawns on the top, and they were totally overcooked so much so I struggled to chew them. Why didn't we eat elsewhere I hear you ask? Well our car broke down and was in pieces in a garage in Thirsk. So we we're literally stranded there for 2 days before we could get a hire car. The food on the whole was a bit of a let down. I wouldn't recommend eating there. I appreciate most of it is precooked and just warned through but they even got that wrong. The chefs were quite young in age, in fact most of the staff I came across were under the age of 35. I'm not sure how much training the chefs had but I really wasn't impressed. I certainly won't be visiting this hotel again."
