Huge fans of the Fairfax - where we have stayed for many years now.
Superb breakfast, brilliant bar staff and delicious food.
Beds super comfortable if bathrooms a bit tired but really always an utter joy to be there and so looking forward to the next time! Thank you.

6 / 10Average·Aug 2026
The room was ideal for a family with a dog, double bedroom and separate twin room with one bathroom for £210 on a Saturday night. The room was like a motel room off the car park and was a very practical.
The food wasn’t great and the service was disorganised. The menu was a little odd, was hard to find something any of us fancied it was a strange mix of options - there was no chicken breast or steak and ale pie left by 730 when we were ordering. The chicken burger was not nice - the chicken was in a tempura batter and then in a bread bun so was very greasy. The chips were ok. Steak was cooked very well as was the duck, fish pie was ok. Breakfast was poor - poached eggs with the full breakfast rubbery with overcooked yolk to the point of inedible, continental table had very little choice. Service was good at breakfast.
