Owners very pleasant but only took over the business on the day we arrived therefore things were a bit tops turvy. Having said this they tried their best to make everyone comfortable.
Room was large and comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay

All great big clean room nice bathroom all tiled great breakfast nice staff BUT just so cold in the room only had under floor heating got the room to 16c had to watch tv in bed to keep warm could not get the towel in the bathroom to work. It had a button like the ones you turn lights on and then they go off slowly as it had a tiled floor again just so cold when having a shower you need your socks on to walk in just to use the loo but I would go back but only in the summer
Great very dog friendly hotel. With good parking and excellent food. Close to a number of interesting walks in the amazing countryside close by. Good breakfast too! Helios.
Breakfast was not as good as expected. My breakfast was served with a dried up fried egg with bits of egg shell. That said overall a pleasant stay good value for money.
I found the room very nice. However it was not particularly clean. The shiwer head leaked badly and i had to refit the toilet seat. Breakfast was disappointing. The tables were sticky from the evening before and the eating experience was very disappointing. There is absolutely no way that i would stay in this place again.
The room was excellent, very clean abd spacious. The pub is very traditional and had a great atmosphere. Food was also good. Would definitely visit again.
The staff and regulars were super friendly.
A good welcome given.
My only problem was wifi being intermittent in the room of my accommodation.
I would definately stay again and recommend it
