Stayed in a family room on the 2nd floor. Clean but cramped with exceptionally small shower area. No air conditioning. Good food at dinner and breakfast. Pleasant staff. On busy main street through village.

A very pleasant stay. Staff attentive and friendly. Excellent breakfast. Bar was unfortunately closed to non-diners in keeping with covid restrictions. Town was busy causing some difficulty in finding parking nearby. Was certainly stay again.

Price not reflwctive of room

Outdated small hotel room in serious need of a revamp. The bed with 2 pillows was extremely uncortable. The bathroom was tiny.. The shower was one of those old fashioned ones where you have to step into the bath. No bath mat so i nearly slipped, then stubbed my toe getting out as there is a doorstop in the way. The room had no ac. Their covid prep for tea/coffee was below standard. Website said free parking but there is no hotel carpark, there is free parking on the street outside but this is the main st of the town so it proved difficult each night to get any remotely close by. On a plus the hotel staff and front desk were really lovely and very helpful on front desk for info. The breakfast was decent also. The room does not warrant the price though, it was same price on multiple sites and their own website. There was no photo of the room type i chose and i picked off the other rooms thinking it wouldnt be far off.
