Your perfect home away from home

Our bedrooms are located on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd floors of the building. We have a lift to the 1st and 2nd floor only. The 3rd floor is only accessible by stairs. Due to the nature of the old building, not all rooms will be suitable for those with limited mobility. If you would like to book a room please give us a call directly, we would be happy to advise.

Please note, that we do not have a designated disabled parking space, but do have parking at the front of the building. This needs to be pre-booked with our team directly.

We have a selection of family rooms. If you book online, please add to the notes that you are bringing children with you (and their age) or call us for specific requirements. Children over 14 years old should be allocated their own room.

Please note, we do not have beds or cots on site. Family rooms have a sofa bed that are only suitable for children under the age of 12 – a few of our rooms have beds. Should you require a cot, we advise you to please bring your own from home.

Extra children are charge at £15 per child (room only), or £22.50 per child (bed & breakfast).

Breakfast is served every morning from 7:30am until 10am and is included as part of your room rate.

We permit dogs in a select number of our rooms. If you are planning to bring a dog, you must ensure that a Dog-Friendly Room has been booked prior to arrival.

Dog charges are £20 per dog, per stay. This charge is not included in the room rate and will be added as an additional cost on top of the accommodation rate.

Our hotel bedrooms and most public areas are pet friendly. However, as we do accommodate dogs on site, guests with allergies or sensitivities are strongly advised to notify the hotel directly in advance of arrival. While we cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment, we will always endeavour to meet individual requirements where possible.

Dogs are permitted in most areas of the hotel. Please speak to the team on check-in for full details. We politely request that dogs are kept on leads at all times in public areas and are not left unattended in bedrooms during your stay.

We ask that dogs are not left on their own in the rooms. Your dog is allowed with you in all areas of the Great Western except the main restaurant.

Included in this additional rate you will find our ‘Proper Dog’ hamper complete with tennis ball, Forthglade treats, biodegradable poo-bags and Proper Job beer for you to take away with you.
