We had a fantastic time this weekend! All the staff were warm and made us feel very welcome. Our room was very warm, with a lovely shower and comfy bed. The food was absolutely delicious! Over the course of the weekend we ate in both restaurants. Both restaurants were top notch! Thank you very much for having us, we will be back.

very friendly and pleasant staff. Nice little hotel for a one night stop. Unfortunately breakfast is not provided and the Cafe in the village/town I was told I could use has closed down. breakfast was a cold sandwich from Tesco. Not the best start to the day.

Verified traveller

As a solo female traveller I found the Vale Hotel to be perfect for my needs. I had a lovely, comfortable, spotlessly clean room in a quiet part of the hotel. I felt totally safe as the security was impressive and the host made me feel extremely welcome. There is a lovely outside area to enjoy a drink from the Gin Bar and a delicious choice of food. The host was very knowledgeable about the area. A most enjoyable stay - thank you.

Nice staff!
Very good service and great information from the staff! But extremely loud noise from the road outside of the hotel. Also missing the breakfast.

It was easy to book and checking in was easy once I found the right phone number. I had many emails confirming booking and one of the phone numbers listed took me to an irate gentleman who had not been involved with the hotel for 2 years. Need to check that all numbers are valid. The room was very nicely furnished and presented but the blind was impossible to raise so no natural daylight available. I cant comment on the catering as none was available over Christmas and this was made clear at the time of booking, so all fine.

Stayed in a small single room but had all the basic necessities including a shower/wc. Room was very warm and unable to turn temperature down on radiator but opening window solved that.
