Welcoming stay at The Riverside

The staff were very friendly & helpful and the evening menu & food was good. The Honeymoon suite was was a good size room with a nice bathroom & good shower, which is rare these days. The carpet however was a little grubby. You can hear the bar music below the room until late.

Good stay, needs updating

Really friendly staff. Lovely views from our room of the garden. Delicious breakfast. Quick and easy check in and out. The only downside is that the room could do with a little renovation. The toilet seat was half hanging off, the flush didn’t work properly and the carpet was quite worn in places.
