Christmas stop over!
This is my second stay at the Heights as we have family who live in Southwell who we were visiting over Christmas. We enjoyed yet another great stay, the service was really good, the breakfast was amazing and we had a room on the ground floor which was really comfortable..the only complaint we had was that we couldnt turn down the heating in the bathroom but we did mention this to reception when we left. Overall another great stay!

Lovely stay
We were welcomed by zoe on reception who was friendly and engaging.
Quicky given our room key and went to our room.
The decor is a little dated but the room was spacious and warm. The bed was huge and comfy so what more could you ask for.
We had breakfast which was buffet style and eat as much as you wanted.
The best thing about this hotel has to be the view over Chesil beach which is amazing.
We would have no hesitation staying again.
