Hotel

Taken over in 2005 by Richard and Dee Slade, Battlesteads has quickly gained a reputation for its character and warm welcome as a friendly, family run hotel.

Battlesteads has 17 en-suite rooms with colour television, DVD, freeview, ironing boards and hairdryer, all have been carefully modernised to provide comfortable accommodation. Four ground floor rooms have facilities for the disabled and are within easy, level, access of the bar, restaurant and parking.

Broadband access is available in all rooms. Pets are welcome (by prior arrangement).

For a touch of extra luxury ask about our Chipchase Room.
