Hotels Near Sainsbury's Petrol Station in Shaftesbury

The communication from the hotel was first rate giving me all the information I needed. I arrived and was greeted by a friendly receptionist who checked us in efficiently. The rooms are lovely with soft and comfy beds. Our stay was cut short due to family issues and this is where the hotel staff excelled. They went above and beyond to assist us which was really appreciated. We have booked to return in the near future and are really looking forward to coming back. Many thanks

Stayed here to visit Comic Con Wales 2022. Check in went smoothly, keys picked up from reception. Vending machines at reception and told about nearby Lidl and Asda. On arrival to the room I found the room very hotel. Room was pleasant for the price with a large double bed, desk and wardrobe. En suite bathroom pod which contained toilet, shower, mirror, bathroom shelf and sink. Mentioned at reception I needed a fan that night. Receptionist seemed to be in the process of being trained up by other receptionist. He was quite distant. Had to email reception a few hours later as no fan had been provided and another receptionist brought the fan up. Shared kitchen/TV room very clean with lots of facilities. Building very safe as key fob used around 4 times in the building to get to room. The walls are paper thin and I could hear the room next door's conversation from 7am on the Saturday which was very irritating as I didn't have to be up for my event until later. The room next door were stomping around and slamming doors. Even for the price, I would expect a shower I could get washed properly in. It was difficult as the shower pressure was very low and only a small trickle of water came out. Toiletries provided. Sheets were not changed during my 3 night stay nor were the bins emptied. There was no toilet brush which is basic hygiene. Top shelf of desk had not been cleaned and was very dusty. Apart from that, room very clean. Location excellent for local supermarkets, bingo Hall across the road and only a 5-10 taxi ride from the city centre and train station. A hairdryer was provided. All in all, excellent value for money and low price but a shower that enables proper washing is a basic human right and the very low water pressure needs to be addressed. The rooms and building need air conditioning due to the extreme heat in the summer.

Booked for my husbands birthday, he played 2 rounds of golf and enjoyed. I found the hotel to be very corporate and for a 5* hotel, I felt it lacked service. No water in the room, this is a must, I had to ask for it every day more than once, this should be standard in any hotel let a lone a 5* hotel! The food in Pad (Thai) was tasteless, however, the food n Steak on Six was very good and the buffet breakfast was good and lots of choice. The staff were a little lacking! I wouldn't go back, my husband may go back for the golf.

Situated in the countryside outside Newport, just off the bypass. Plenty of parking, I think free. Reasonable amenities for our weekend function, though the Wi-Fi was weak at times and crashed periodically. Respectable food and dining facilities, not top quality, but okay, bearing in mind the discounted price. Decent bar, though the wine wasn't cheap. The beer was. Rather disorganised staff on arrival, they unsure what rooms were ready. They were also reluctant to print airline boarding passes, though did so when emailed to the desk. There were quite a number of radiators on in the hotel, plus a bathroom heated towel rail in my room, making it uncomfortably warm at times - this was May. The bedroom was comfortable enough, if a bit battered in places, plus the toilet leaked water into the bowl continually. There was no soap, only liquid dispensers. Could best be described as cheap and functional (largely).

Location brilliant. Visited Gavin and Stacey Barry Island and relived childhood memories. Walked the Roman Walls at Caerwent and Norman Chepstow Casle. Both are a very close to The Barn. The hotel was friendly and comfortable thanks to the efforts of Sharn(bar), Sue(breakfast) and Deborah(room). The hotel has a rural aspect but you can hear and see the M4. My only complaint was the lack of grabhandles in the bathroom. Although being an active 91 year old I would have felt more secure. I mentioned this on leaving and was told that the management would be informed. This was a memorable visit and I shall be returning.

Booked in 30th Aug - 2 Sept 22. (Room 226) On arrival was met by young man who was brilliant, explained everything and had a good laugh. The rest of the staff were of the same ilk, friendly and very helpful. Went into the room and first impressions were ok. The bed is a standard double. not good when you have a bed hogging wife. The sheets were clean and fresh and although small the bed was comfortable. They could do with putting plug sockets on both sides of the bed. Its a small bed so wouldn't need too much cabling. The bath is ok if you are a size 0, however, any larger, forget it. I couldn't get my lardy **** into it. But on the plus side, it was clean and tidy. Issues with the bathroom, Went I went for a tinkle in the middle of the night, I burnt my retinas out because the lights are super bright, not what you need at 0200hrs. maybe a night light or mirror light could be installed. A little more attention to the carpets would have been nice, found some shirt buttons that had been missed (previous occupant must have got lucky) because they were in different areas of the room. Breakfast, We went twice, first day at 0900hrs, it was ok, little on the cold side, went again on last day at 0800hrs and it was perfect. Tasty and hot. My biggest issue is the heat. the room was a sauna, I must have lost at least a stone. the fan given in the room is as much use as a chocolate fire guard. I hardly slept the three nights we were there as it was way too hot. even, the wife (who practically sits on a radiator) struggled. Wasn't the best hotel I've stayed in, but certainly not the worst . Over all 7.5/10

My mum and I had a wonderful time staying here! We were given adjoining rooms and it was so lovely to be able to pop in and see each other, whilst also having our own lovely space to stay in! It was a great location, had more than we even thought we needed but it made the visit so comfortable and nice for us!
