Clean presentable and nice welcoming staff. For info, nearest station is Eskbank and whilst route planners say 20 minutes walk that is via a public footpath that is unlit, the "long way" is nearer 40 minutes, any which way the station has a large car park.

Not the best.

I booked this property for its convenient location, thinking it would allow me to leave for work later. However, things didn't go as planned. When I went down for breakfast, I was offered a coffee and received it a few minutes later, only to be informed that there was no one available to cook breakfast. The time spent having the coffee meant I couldn't go elsewhere before work. Additionally, I accidentally paid for my evening meal and stay with my personal card. When I asked the lady to refund me so I could use my work card, she said she couldn't do it and the manager would call me the next day. Unfortunately, that call never came, leaving me without breakfast and unable to get a refund.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Late booking but wish i'd gone elsewhere. Bar etc closed from 6pm due to kitchen maintenance. My room bared NO resemblance to any of the shown photos. Bathroom - light pullcord really dirty, shower over bath controls stiff and loose from wall. Grubby, whole room needs deep clean/refurb. Extremely noisy. it's on a main road. My booked 9am breakfast poor and came late due to being told a chef had rang in sick. I had to ask for orange juice, no toast, no cereals or yoghurts or fruit unless they were hidden. Undercooked flat sausage and egg. Breakfast being late also meant limited time to get sorted before leaving. Never again.

The Sun Inn was all that we could have hoped for. Nice, comfortable rooms, friendly and accommodating staff and a wonderful breakfast (free). It had a cozy feel to it and we were sad to leave. It was definitely a five star for us.

The cost for 2 nights was quite expensive. We have been travelling for 2weeks & this was the most expensive. The deal included breakfast as all the hotels we have used. However this was the only hotel that charged an extra £6.50 if we had porridge or cereal with our breakfast. Only one dish allowed for breakfast. All the other hotels where breakfast was inclusive provided all cerals, porridge, fruit juices, yogurts, toast, plus a full cooked breakfast. Never were we charged extra for cereal. No fruit etc available. Today I had porridge, 2 bacon & 2 eggs. No toast etc so they charged my £6. I call that unfair.

The staff were amazing, great little Inn, it is a little out of the way, around 20 minutes from the city centre, however we were prepared for this as we had a hire car. Cute little rooms, has everything you need. We would certainly stay here again! Thanks team!

Good quaint lodge

Nice quaint lodge by the forest just in the outskirts of the city. Lovely garden and outdoor dining. Restaurant onsite but closes early so I missed dinner and had to order a “ Just Eat” delivery. Breakfast was great. Staff were friendly. Overall a good stay.
