The Essex Golf and Country Club

10/10 Excellent

"I stay here most weeks for work and always made to feel at home and comfortable in the room booked Staff are always helpful"

Best Western The Rose & Crown Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Really interesting building if you're into history but they need to re-open the restaurant for lunch and evening meals and the bar needs extended hours for residents. The breakfast was well cooked and of a decent size. The room was adequately clean and of a good size. It's easy to find and good amount of parking."
