"We visited our old favourite Hartley’s again this evening for only the second time in 2023. We always have a lovely time here but we are guilty sometimes of forgetting just how good the food is! To put it into context we have become “foodies” over the last few years having been spoiled by annual trips to France and a few Michelin Star experiences in the UK. Tonight we went back to the fabulous friendly and laid back experience that epitomises our favourite local restaurant, Hartley’s. From the minute we walked in, it was the usual friendly welcome and banter and wow was the food “on point”. Mrs D had the bruschetta freeing me to have the Squid and both were fabulous. Let’s be honest I don’t really like salad, but the one they do with the squid I could happily just eat on its own and with the pickle it so complements the subtle taste of the squid. For mains I had the sublimely balanced gammon with cream sauce, poached egg potatoes and cabbage. How well each element complements one another, The better half enjoyed the Seabass, which from my shared forkful was equally lovely. I had the delicate rhubarb and ginger crumble for pud while the missus had STP. All washed down with a lovely Chilean Merlot! What a fabulous evening! I said to JD “sometimes we do forget just how good this place is” 5 stars tonight only because I couldn’t give 6!"

"I just had an amazing three-course Sunday lunch that included a delightful sweet soup, tender lamb, and the best chocolate fudge brownie I've had in a long time. The service was excellent as well! While I usually enjoy breaking bread, I couldn't resist leaving any of the food behind. I highly recommend this place!"

"I visited this morning for breakfast and had a fantastic experience. The service was outstanding, even with my friend, who can be quite particular about ordering a full English breakfast. The staff were incredibly accommodating. The prices were just right. Overall, I would rate the service and location both 5 out of 5. Hotel highlights include a quiet atmosphere and great value for money."
