Really nice place to stay

What a great find. I was working nearby and needed somewhere to stay. The room was lovely, everything i needed. Couldn't get the tv to work at first, i asked and they came up amd replaced the tv, fantastic service. I had a great sleep and a lovely shower in the morning. 100% recommended..

Disappointed no food served

The Hotel is set in a remote location which is very nice and very peaceful. The accommodation was good with free parking good WiFi. The room was clean and well appointed (room 3) and bed very comfortable. My only criticism would be on Mondays which is the day I stayed the do not serve food on Monday evenings which meant an 8 Mile drive to get some tea as it was so remote. Likewise they don’t serve breakfast on the Tuesday morning and was told only at weekends does this happen. I can understand not having the kitchen open but as booked well in advance it would have been a thought to have a continental style breakfast box placed in the room.

Lovely nights stay when in the area visiting friends. Evening meal was good and service was quick. The breakfast was good but disappointed in the lack of cereal when it was on the menu and included in the price. Would recommend and will use again.
