Lovely place to stay!

Lovely location. Bar was really nice with great selection of food and drinks. The room although a little small for us was very nice with a lovely boutique vibe. The manager Matt was beyond helpful and took time to speak with us and make sure that our stay was as planned. Very pleased and would definitely stay there again.

A pleasant surprise!

This is my first time staying here, and I was pleasantly surprised. The pub has been tastefully decorated without losing any of its original charm: it is cosy, clean, and warm. The host couldn't have been more welcoming, and all staff were exceptional. The room was a pleasant surprise, big enough, nicely decorated and with all the items required for a good stay. Booked again for March!
