Clean and tidy, the accommodation is a quirky building at the rear of the pub. Basic but quite acceptable for the price. Conveniently situated for Great Dunlop and the start of a bike ride I was taking part in.

Convenient, comfortable and excellent value

We stayed before a morning flight and I would definitely stay again. You can arrive up to closing which is 11pm. We initially couldn’t find parking as there was a darts match on (Thursday for reference) but you could block people in and shift it later on. The room was spacious, beds comfortable, and the room had plenty of tea, coffee, UHT milk, sugar as well as shampoo, conditioner, body wash and body lotion. We slept very well. Once the pub is closed it’s very quiet.

Rooms not great, pub food ok

Room was damp and cold. Bed mattress springs were in your back and couldn’t sleep. Food was nice in the pub though.

Room 3

The beds are not the most comfortable, the shower drain is blocking up and won’t be long before it overflows but the premises serves my purposes.

Friendly and great value

Lovely pub. The room was in an outbuilding behind it - simple but clean and nicely decorated. Friendly welcome and great service. Mattress wasn't the most comfortable, but all in all a lovely place to stay at a very good price - I would definitely stay again.

Check in was easy. Friendly and efficient. Check out is at 10am every where else seems to be 11am. Dog friendly. Not able to park in the car park so a residential side road.
