Pilgrims Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Nice old building which was very clean. Lots of stairs so not so good for people with mobility problems. We had a leak in the bathroom from old radiator and toilet and were given another room without any hassle. Freedom to come and go as we pleased. Also parking deal so we could leave the car knowing it was quite safe. Staff were all very pleasant. The bar was good, staffed by receptionist so no bustling room but quiet and restful. We have been to this hotel three times now and find it very good for a quiet weekend."

"The former home of Lord Kitchener offers large rooms and surroundings with old times charm. Room Kimberly had a specious sitting room with fridge and a smaller bedroom with loft ceiling. Didn't have a breakfast. Tried the small gym and small swimming pool, access code changes daily. The once beautiful grounds need a bit more attention . Free parking, decent price. Highly recommended"

8/10 Good
"The Bat and Ball is a 6 bedroom B&B in a former Pub opposite the Spitfire Cricket ground. It has a small car park and narrow staircase to the rooms. The downstairs has a lounge area with guests' fridge, complimentary coffee machine and industrial microwave. Although you are not allowed to eat in the rooms, the breakfast room is available for use all day and evening. We used our own picnic set. Continental breakfast is included in the room rate. The television in our room buffered a few times but otherwise the wifi worked fine. There is a convenient bus stop just down the road on the P3 route."
