"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."

Very helpful staff. Our room was a good size, clean and comfortable. Plenty of parking. It's about 20mins walk into the town and there's an Aldi store just across the road.

I stayed at this charming hotel while traveling on the motorway. The rooms were clean and had just the right amount of ambient lighting for a comfortable stay. I also dined at the restaurant for dinner, which was pleasant and the staff were very friendly. View menu

Checked in a little while ago and the twice we have spoken to the receptionist she has been as miserable as sin.Jody you want to take a happy pill and smile now and again. I have stayed at lots of premier inn hotels and this reception is by far the worst .

Brocolli soup was a bit watery. We then waited for over an hour for our main meals, which were OK. It seemed as if a lot of diners were being served at the same time after a long wait. We’ll be staying here for 3 nights but we’ll be eating out tomorrow and the day after.

"We arrived here for a 2 night stay for a wedding (Fri sat night). PROS: Lynsey the manageress she 100% makes it so fabulous. Lovely, welcoming, looked after us brilliantly. Due to some staff shortages, she was doing what seemed like 10 jobs at once! We ate on one of the nights food was delicious! Great service tasty food. Breakfast was also spot on set us up brilliantly for the day ahead on the Saturday! The Willow room which we stayed in was fab ideal size, lovely cosy too! The whole 2 night stay was extremely reasonably priced the place itself has a great feel about it like a big cosy house! CONS: If you like total darkness, take an eye mask for sleeping as the rooms can get really bright from the early hours. Also, depending on the room, it’s on quite a busy road so can be quite nosy it would be worth having earplugs if you like a quiet surrounding. Due to staffing, the bar doesn’t stay open that late, so be mindful of this, they will however put drinks in your room if you can’t make it back in time for the bar closing. Taxis there are no local taxis, so arranging transport to the wedding we were attending was a nightmare which we didn’t account for! Luckily after 6 different phone calls, we managed to get sorted. The only gripe I had was the confusion over the bill if you decide to charge things to your room, the bills aren’t itemised so it’s difficult to keep track of what has been charged. There was some confusion on checkout over what we should shouldn’t have been charged for, so definitely choose to pay for any extras outright to avoid any confusion or uncertainty before check out. Other than that, it was one of the nicest, most personal stays we’ve had out in a long long time. This was mainly down to the Manageress Lynsey who is fabulous at her job really does make it feel like home makes you feel super welcomed relaxed. Thank you lynsey for really making a stay a one to remember."
