Good Points: Comfortable and the staff were absolutely delightful. We were attending a family celebration held at Berties and the staff could not have been more welcoming or helpful. The breakfast was lovely and well presented.
Bad Points: Bedroom was above kitchens and facilities and was marred by a continuous humming of extractors or refridgerators all night long: the shower was erratic. So if going again would ask for a bedroom over the front or restaurant part.
Further Comments: This is a foodie's heaven. The restaurant is exceptional and the breakfast is lovely well presented with helpful staff. The bedrooms were nicely furnished but a bit small (but then it is an old building) with en suite facilities which is a bonus. Parking is in a small car park with an exceptionally narrow entrance between two buildings, not for the feint hearted!

Good Points: Clean and fairly quiet place - just what you need for an overnight stay

11 Young couple - 11/06/07	80%
Good Points: Friendly and courteous staff, cleanliness, excellent food.
Further Comments: Greeted by a very pleasant young man who was extremely helpful and polite; food was excellent, room adequate, en-suite slightly small, and television would have been better in an elevated position; lack of seating in the room;and biscuits would have been nice to compliment the tea/coffee facilities. A clothes iron would have been advantageous, but these are only petty issues, and the lack of facilities did not detract whatsoever from the overall stay.

Good Points: Quite adequate for an overnight stay. Not really suitable for a long stay.
Bad Points: We had a small room with little storage space which just about qualified as en suite.
Further Comments: The hotel was in an old building (formerly a public house) converted into a small hotel which caused limitations. Nevertheless we found the staff were excellent, very helpful and efficient. Also the hotel was very clean.

Good Points: The staff were friendly and attentive. There was agood selection of food on the menu although only one main dish of note for vegitarians. The room was well presented and clean and the bed very comfortable.
Bad Points: Would have prefered a bath as well as a shower but the overall size of the rooms did not permit this. The vegitarian main course (mushroom Lasagne) was not very good.
Further Comments: Overall the we enjoyed the stay and breakfast time was very easy with good quality food. I do not think that I would stay in this accomodation for more than a couple of nights as there were no facilities to sit and relax outside of your room. For a short stay with a good restaurant with good wines at hand I can throughly recoment Berties.
