Stayed for 1 night, staff all friendly and our room was great for a family of 4. Ideal to be attached the pub as we didn’t have to go far for an evening meal after a long day out. Food was lovely and the next morning for breakfast also didn’t disappoint. Will definitely stay again. Thanks

Room was clean and nice but breakfast abysmal - everything at 8.30 had obviously been sitting for a long time - just warm. Hash browns had unpleasant rank tasting oil throughout, eggs cold, sausage tepid. The woman hosting was unsmiling with every customer she greeted - not a great start to the day.
