Excellent stay.
Room was very clean with a big comfy bed, we did have a leak in the ceiling which left us with a small damp patch on the quilt when we got back to the room at night.
Breakfast was lovely!!

We had a great stay
The staff were lovely, helpful, visible and polite. The food was great for the 50% off which it was that day. The restaurant, reception and room no complaints at all. The only thing I could say to improve would be the stairwell to the rooms wasn’t hoovered and didn’t look like it had been for a while. The carpet was also ripped in a couple of places.

good overall stay
In the room we stayed in the walk in shower dribbles water out onto the bathroom floor , which is unavoidable , there is no soap holder on the shower and the drenching shower head wastes water and energy.

Wedding Venue
Stayed for my daughter and son in laws wedding.
Beautiful place, excellent day.
My only complaint was that the bedrooms were unbelievably hot. Fans were provided but did nothing. It was so hot that hair and makeup were almost impossible and sleeping very difficult.
I think also it would be a great help if there was somewhere bigger for the bridal party to get ready as the rooms are so small.

The staff were very kind and efficient. We were able to check in earlier than was stated. The room was spotless and clean and the hotel itself was well placed with easy parking. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Wildes Inn.

Excellent Hotel!
The staff were super friendly and helpful. The hotel was immaculate!
The room was spacious, and the bed was comfortable.
We had breakfast and due to the time we went down, we were the only ones there. I had fresh eggs made for me. We got an ample supply of pastries. It was brilliant!
The only hiccup we had was that there is a constant noise in the room due to a fan or something that we can't turn off. Apart from that, I was very impressed with the hotel.

Room very small no air conditioning wouldn’t move us due to booking through hotels. Com Looking out onto roof tiles very uncomfortable bed got little sleep room very dated as well . Very disappointed with the whole experience when it should have been nice relaxing stay celebrating a weekend wedding.
