Sleep soundly in a kingsize Hypnos bed, on the Beaumont mattress, which is filled with a wool-silk mix and has a surface which regulates your body’s temperature.

A warm welcome from our teams is standard but so is excellent food. Whatever your occasion, choose from our freshly-prepared signature dishes, as well as the pub classics that you know and love, including steaks and burgers. Not forgetting the kids who have their very own menu. Find a great wine selection, as well as a range of soft drinks and spirits. We boast an excellent selection of cask ales, from Marston’s five breweries.
