Having visited Potter's several times before for their Sunday carvery, we opted to go there for our Christmas Day lunch. Basically, very similar to their Sunday offering, but the cold starter buffet was somewhat more fancy, and crackers were supplied. Quite expensive, but it saved us doing all the prep, and post lunch washing up! Fair deal in the circumstances!

I stayed here with a group and we were all a little worried because of the other reviews. We were subsequently pleasantly surprised at the fact that the hotel was actually lovely. It may not be the most modern place I've ever stayed but the beds are comfortable, the rooms are relatively spacious and the facilities are great. The staff are also very friendly and accommodating.

The meal we had was perfectly cooked although the portions were quite small. There did not appear to be enough staff on call as they all seemed to be doubling up on their tasks whilst one or two of them didn't seem to know what they were supposed to be doing. We did not stay overnight so I cannot comment on that aspect of the establishment.

I stayed here is 2007, I've wanted to share my ghost story. I was sitting on the bed with my nephew and we were playing battle ship. My nephew won and I said I guess well have to see what's on that TV, as we returned our rental car and we were kind of stuck in the hotel. As soon as I said it the TV turned its self on. My nephew turned around and looked at the TV. I looked to see where the TV remote was and it was on the other bed. He was scared and I've always wondered what happened. I've come to accept that something heard me and turned it on. I enjoyed my stay there but my nephew and I still talk about that.

Excellent carvery on Sunday lunch time. I'm vegetarian and they were so quick to accommodate me. The mushroom Wellington was fantastic and they went out of their way to make some vegetarian gravy for me. The desserts were also wonderful. Quality and a great selection too.
