The hotel provides three private dining rooms with separate entrances and bars for small gatherings. Onsite parking is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis, with ample free public parking a minute's walk away.

Dining & Refreshments

The bistro restaurant serves contemporary British cuisine, with bar meals offered from Thursday to Saturday inclusive.
