I and my wife had an amazing stay at this place. Nice clean rooms, incredibly comfortable. No room service but it wasn't required as such for an overnight stay. Definitely recommended for a short stay.

Room was clean but very small (barely any room to open suitcase). Right outside the room was a table of diners at the outdoor space of the pub/restaurant. The pub/restaurant had excellent food and drink. It was also within 2 minute walk from the Moreton train station. The Expedia address is not accurate. This hotel is in Moreton.

On arrival, large safe car park, the Frampton arms was very smart, and clean on the outside, found reception easily, the staff gave us a good welcome, staff very friendly, polite, and nothing was too much trouble, always willing to help. The room was clean, bed very comfortable, there’s a train station opposite,but hardly herd the trains food great, would recommend, and definitely stay again.
