ROD

Liked: Staff & service
When we arrived the staff were welcoming and friendly although booking in system a bit chaotic and we did not receive all information about servicing rooms on daily basis. Ran out of towels, clean crockery, coffees and no hand wash in bathrooms. Bathrooms not very clean and floors decidedly grubby. A real shame as perfect location and very nice staff, maybe management issue! Rod and Sue

Had a really nice stay. Staff were very nice and helpful. Room was quite basic but was ok for what we needed. Breakfast was really nice. A little loud on an night but this is understandable as it is a pub.

Overnight stay for a stag night, the room was fine if a little snug but that is to be expected as the pub itself is an old building. Staff are very helpful and friendly.

Quirky but comfortable

Quirky and comfortable. Room was not level but expected in a pub this old Radiator was very noisy so I turned it off which sorted it nicely Green emergency lighting in room tended to light up the room too much Lovely view from the room overlooking the quay which you can’t better If you are driving, parking is very limited outside with just an hour between 9 and 7 pm. I got around this by parking from 6 pm to 10 am but it can fill quick Plenty of car parks are available at cost nearby 10 min walk which have free motorcycle parking Breakfast was good

Short stay at Twixmas

Nice old pub with lots of character. It’s a very old building that is also very noisy as it’s old. Kept awake at night by washing machine on floor below. Beds were not very comfy and bathrooms are clean but not well maintained and could do with replacing. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was fabulous.

This listed building has wonky bedroom floors, old wood beams on display and that nice old charm which is difficult to achieve in modern motels. . I have waited over 50 years to stay here and it did not disappoint! As a bonus, the staff are all really nice and efficient.

Fish on the quay, Lovely little B&B.

A really good stay at fish on the quay. Staff were lovely, would like to mention especially jack (barman) and Kieran (assistant manager as they were happy, and always spoke to us, to be honest all staff were friendly.The room was very nice, we were lucky as we had the bathroom in our room, but other rooms don’t. It’s a nice little B&B. Breakfast was really good and a good size,chef did a brilliant job. One thing I would say is that it look late like u don’t get housekeeping for the stay while u are there, the bin did get full and tea and coffee did not get filled up, BUT all you have to do is ask if you need anything and they are happy to supply it. Would recommend it and definitely would stay there again if in the area, would love to see the area in the summer.

Location excellent however accommodation needs total refurbishment. Cleanliness an issue and although old property we felt a good deep clean was needed. We could also hear mice or something scuttling within walls which was very unsettling.
