Chadwick House Hotel

If you want boutique then this is not for you.However if you are a realist and practical person this place has all you need.Decor in rooms is dated and simple but nonetheless the room I had was clean,the bed was comfortable and the shower worked and had hot water.The host is a lovely gentleman and was helpful,courteous and polite.The breakfast was served at time requested and although simple was of excellent quality.Price for room was reasonable in comparison to competitors prices.All in all a clean,comfortable stay and would have no hesitation in returning.

We were unable to stay at the hotel due to deeply personal and upsetting family reasons. We had no alternative than to cancel the booking through the booking website 45 hours before our stay was due to take place. The policy was 48 hours before the stay was due to take place. The owner Fred didn't respond to our message until a full 34 hours later, suggesting that if he receives another booking that he wouldn't charge us. He clearly didn't try too hard, given how long he took to respond and knowing he could claim the fee from us anyhow. We have no way of verifying as to whether he took another booking or not. We were even charged for the inclusive breakfasts he knew we weren't going to have.!!

AVOID AT ALL COSTS First impression wasn’t great, looks like a abandoned hostel with flaking paint and weeds coming out of all the plant pots outside, the owner opened the door and I was immediately hit with the fact the place was very dated and old smelling. The owner was very pleasant in himself and he explained that we would need to pre order breakfast and to write this on a scrappy bit of paper, the menu he gave me had a order written on and I asked do i write on this and no someone else did that, doesn’t take much to print a new one off. He showed me to my room, which he kindly let me have the key prior to the time we should have checked in as it would have been very late when we coming back from the festival. On arriving back from the festival we parked our car in the back carpark and walk up the fire exit to enter the building and the first thing that hit us was the horrendous smell of cannabis as we walked in the door. Luckily the smell wasn’t in our room. The bed was obviously broken on the one side as it sank when you lay on it and when you rolled over you felt you were going to fall out of bed. Hence no proper sleep that night In the morning went to go for a shower to find we only had a bath even though on booking.com it stated there was a shower and there was a half bottle of shower gel left in the bath which I find very strange. Breakfast was served to our room which which had to eat of a little side table and 2 stools which are not practical. The first thing that’s hit me with the breakfast was the smell of grease and the bacon looked like it was cause damage to your teeth it was that hard. Cutlery and toast wrapped in kitchen roll not napkins. Not. Pleasant start to the day. When we check out my Husband went downstairs to hand the key in and pressed the buzzer to have a door open to him by a lady dressed in a nightdress.
