Heard a lot bad about this place but was genuinely not too bad. Had a two night stay for work and bed was comfortable, room had a TV with Netflix, Youtube etc. Night staff seemed a bit blunt however day staff were lovely. Didn’t get chance to try restraint / bar but the area looked really nice. Only issue is distance from town centre. No taxis were available including uber and the walk is roughly 30 minutes.

Needs managing
Tired old place but was comfortable, room was ok for the price. Food is average and the staff were more interested in the Euro football on TV than the customers. We ate late due to travel and the kitchen staff just wanted watch the football, on arrival the receptionist was sitting in front of the TV, clearly the place has no effective manager.

4/10 Fair

The WiFi at the property is virtually non-existent and phone signal is terrible, therefore we felt really isolated while staying there. The staff were friendly and chatty and made up for a less than ideal hotel stay. They are a credit to the company

I had read some awful reviews about the Wishing Well but our family booked 3 rooms, one was a family room. All were basic but all were spacious and clean. The staff were friendly and welcoming. We didnt eat here but did use the bar which looked as if it had been recently updated.
